San Francisco Theater, Shows & Musicals

Mac made the whole experience enjoyable. Highly recommended! If for nothing else, great stories and a way to get to know this little part of the city's history. The old photos of the city and the ghost detectors really added to the experience and we got to use the dowsing rods to talk to a spirit! Mac is the real deal, no B.S. You will love this tour!

Aliya was a wonderful guide. Very entertaining & she personalised the tour for us so it was more like a conversation between friends! Aliya is very knowledgeable about history & ghostly activity of the local area

I took my four grandchildren, ages 9-14, to see this show in August 2026. It was a wonderful experience! High energy performance by amazingly talented acrobats. Club Fugazi is a small venue with great atmosphere and this show is a worthy addition to its rich history. Highly recommended.

I am native San Franciscan who attended San Francisco’s Beach Blanket Babylon on several occasions. As good of a show BBB was, my expectations were absolutely blown away yesterday afternoon when I attended the matinee performance of Dear SF. It was a 90 minute nonstop performance that made you smile, made you in awe of the performers athletic abilities, shout with pleasure, and kept you wondering “what’s next.” I especially enjoyed writing a “Dear SF” letter because it allowed me, to express my joy and pride for being a native. My paternal grandfather had is photographic studio on the top floor during the early 20th century, and I know that he looked down upon the performance last night with pride and joy. This is a must-see performance.

Aliyah was an amazing and knowledgeable guide! We had a great time!

Lisi was great. Knowledgeable ,, knew alot of San Francisco history. Overall a great experience. We recommend to add to your to do list.

Like a mini Cirque de Soleil without the “spectacle”, without the sparkly costumes.. Astonishing astounding gymnastics from a troupe of 10 talented entertainers/athletes. Upbeat. You will literally be gasping with amazement at their talents. WOW WOW WOW WOW doesn’t begin to express the talent & bravery?! ) displayed. Located in a gorgeous historic small theater right in North Beach at Columbus Ave & Stockton, 20-25 minute flat safe fun walk from fisherman’s wharf For kids 10 +. but mostly adults. Balcony seats are the best,close to stage but all seats are great in this small venue.

Absolutely brilliant! A high adrenaline Love-Letter to San Francisco. Buy your ticket today, go with friends, family, colleagues, by yourself, just don’t miss it! Grab a drink & order food whilst you are there. You are in for a treat & a fabulous night!

Informative and humorous. Zave told great stories of San Francisco’s past and kept it very light hearted.

Had a wonderful time with Zave last night. He was very knowledgeable and energetic. I got to use the dowsing rods and it was really cool and fun. Would definitely recommend taking this tour not only for some possible ghost encounter but for the history you will learn. I would love to do it again next time I return to San Francisco.

Traveled alone for business and wanted to see the city at night. Was a good way to do something fun and feel safe. Jamie was energetic and a good storyteller. Our group had energy readings the entire time. Fun time with nice people. I’d highly recommend.

Really fun experience! Zave was a very organized and entertaining host! I loved learning about the history of SF in addition to the spookier elements.

Zave was an excellent tour guide. He was fun and very knowledgeable. He made the tour really interesting.

This was a great show. High energy, such talent on stage stunning acrobatics. Loved every part. Would HIGHLY recommend!!

"Dear San Francisco" is an entertaining show for the entire family. There aren't many performances that you can enjoy as a family with kids, young adults, to grandparents and all have a good time. Take your friends and enjoy the show.There are a lot of excellent restaurants in all price ranges nearby....so it is an easy San Francisco experience.Show provides background about San Francisco so it gives a little history of the area for tourists. I love the vintage video clips. The poetry slam with famous quotes from S.F. Bay Area poets is one of my favorite part. The circus performers make everything they do look so easy, you start thinking that you want to hang upside down on a trapeze, or flip around in the air.The entire show is not too long. The actual building has lots of character on the inside. Crowd size varies, but I have gone several times to take guests, and there were always seats. My favorite place is to sit on stage. Staff is friendly with the usual eclectic "San Francisco" character. Snacks and drinks during the show are good. We like the cornbread, and non-alcoholic mixer.

We took the tour on July 4 and got the extra fun of fireworks going off in all directions. Zave was an amazing storyteller and guide and made the history come alive. A perfect match of spooky and historic this tour is one of the better ghost tours I’ve been on.
