Slip into your finest pinstripes, fringe, sequins, and feathers and make your way to Bourbon & Broadway, a speakeasy-inspired soirée benefiting San Francisco Bay Area Theatre Company (SFBATCO). For one unforgettable evening, the doors swing open to an underground world where dazzling entertainment, exceptional spirits, and extraordinary company come together in support of bold theatre and the artists who bring it to life. The password? "Bourbon & Broadway." Consider this your invitation.
Be transported to San Francisco’s Fillmore District—beginning in the present day, where the echoes of a once-thriving Black neighborhood still shape the streets. From there, Every Saturday Night pulls audiences back into the 1950s, the vibrant “Harlem of the West,” when the Fillmore pulsed with jazz, community, and possibility.
Following two Black boys—one in each era—the musical explores home, belonging, and resilience, revealing how the Fillmore’s past and present are connected by displacement, gentrification, and the enduring fight to stay rooted in the community.
Inspired by true events, this boisterous and heartfelt new work by acclaimed Bay Area playwright, composer, and director Danny Duncan and playwright Michael Gene Sullivan celebrates a historic neighborhood while asking urgent questions about who gets to remain in the city today.
