Description:Built in 1922, the Curran has housed some of the biggest productions in theater history, including more pre-Broadway engagements than any other theater in San Francisco. Productions that have been staged at the Curran prior to moving to Broadway have included Fences in 1987 and Wicked in 2003. The Curran hosted five years of Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera, becoming the show's longest domestic run outside of New York City. The Curran has maintained a reputation over the course of its life as one of the premier live entertainment venues in North America. Under the curation of eight-time Tony Award-winner Carole Shorenstein Hays, almost a century after it welcomed its first Bay Area audiences, the Curran recently completed a major restoration and renovation, reopening the 1,600 seat venue in January 2017 with the groundbreaking musical Fun Home. Since then, the Curran welcomed even more incredible productions, including Harry Potter And The Cursed Child, as part of the Ambassador Theatre Group family. On September 11, we bid adieu to Harry Potter And The Cursed Child, following 297 performances -- making it the longest-running play in the history of the city. We intend to continue as a cultural hub for all of the Bay Area and are working hard to find exciting shows to thrill and entice, now that the Curran is no longer occupied by a certain boy wizard.
