What did our critic think of HAIRSPRAY at SF Playhouse?

An Evening with Sutton Foster and Kelli O’Hara at the San Francisco Symphony is exactly the kind of event that reminds you why live performance is so magical. Inspired by the legendary 1962 television special featuring Carol Burnett and Julie Andrews, the evening celebrates not only two extraordinary contemporary performers, but also the timeless joy of song, storytelling, and musical theatre itself. Rather than simply presenting a concert, Foster and O’Hara crafted an affectionate homage to the women who paved the way for generations of Broadway artists.
