I enjoyed it in ny, but I'm surprised it is still playing and can financially work for years. Of course,mit probably would have a few month run in sf at most.

I think SF is a prime city for it. The show has never been marketed as a theater piece, but an event, and this city loves an event. Plus, it speaks to not only the theater audiences, but to the large dance audience (it's a major movement piece), but also the Burner crowd, the film-maker crowd, I think the techies that love anything underground would flock to it... it's a natural fit here.

There is definitely a very yiung hip crowd in sf now. More than just stuffy financial establishment. So you cojld be right. Ive never been fo the mint, so i might go justmto check it out.

Who knows what will happen but I would assume, even if it's a Punchdrunk production, that it would be a different story likely more site (and perhaps SF) specific.

I tend to agree as to its longevity, but look how long Teatro ZinZanni lasted (and would likely still be performing if it weren't for the America's Cup).

Stranger things have happened.
