San Francisco is known for its hip and cultural arts centers around the city. However, it is still very far away from the likes of New York’s Broadway scene and the glamorous aurora of Los Angeles’ cultural districts. However, this has not stopped the Curran Theatre in San Francisco, California, from being a top venue for Broadway since it opened in 1922. This 1,667 capacity venue is a major part of the cultural history of the city and has earned the reputation of being a top spot for locals. Notable shows that are featured here include Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserables, Jersey Boys and more. This venue is situated on 445 Geary and is owned by Carole Shorenstein Hays, a theatrical producer who earned the track record of being a top Broadway show producer. Other notable events that are featured here include the likes of Tony award winners and mainstream musical artists.
