| ACT did Sunday in the Park With George around a year after the original Broadway production closed. I think it might have been the first professional production after Broadway. The national tours of West Side Story, Gypsy, Company, Night Music, Pacific Overtures, Sweeney Todd and Into the Woods all played in San Francisco, although the national tour of Forum did not, perhaps because Edwin Lester thought it too dirty for the Civic Light Opera and they somehow never booked it anywhere else. ACT did Forum in 1989. I wonder if that might have been the first full-scale professional production of the show to play in San Francisco proper. |
