Beach Blanket Babylon: Long-Running Musical Comedy Revue at Club Fugazi

Full Price:
$53.00
Our Price:
$26.50

Steve Silver's Beach Blanket Babylon is the world's longest-running musical revue. Since 1974, this San Francisco institution has followed Snow White on a musical comedy quest around the world, where she runs into satirically portrayed pop-culture and political celebrities, an impressive array of gigantic hats and one show-stopping musical number after another. Because the show is constantly updated with new costumes, hats and characters, it rewards repeat visits. Among the familiar faces you might see spoofed in Beach Blanket's latest incarnation: Lady Gaga, Barack and Michelle Obama, the cast of Glee, Kate Middleton and Adele. Even after nearly 40 years, Beach Blanket Babylon remains one of San Francisco's wildest evenings of live entertainment. Learn More

good dancing, some fun costumes, poor acoustics in the theater made it difficult to hear the lyrics, the story didn't capture me

Enjoyed the show…..we had orchestra seats; the seats were a little uncomfortable. No cocktails during the break, only candy and small bags of popcorn. You can’t beat the price.
