Off Broadway in Sac., San Fran., Vegas?

Skynut

I am looking to get tickets for a live show in the Sacramento or San Francisco area and was wondering if any of you had any recomendations?

They are for Wifey's Christmas present so the Pussycat is out.

Vegas is an option.

There's a new show in San Francisco that's based on a Anne Rice novel, with music by Elton John/Bernie Taupin....but I forget the name. I remember seeing the ad saying it's a pre-Broadway engagement. I will get the name of the show for you.

Lestat
LESTAT, one of Anne Rice's most celebrated literary characters, is being brought to the stage by the illustrious team of Sir Elton John (music) and Bernie Taupin (lyrics) in their first-ever collaboration on a Broadway production. LESTAT is the lush and rich story of a man who escapes the tyranny of his oppressive family only to have his life taken from him. Thrust into the seductive and sensual world of an immortal vampire, Lestat tries to reconcile his innate sense of good with his primal need to exist. Based on characters and incidents from Ms. Rice's best-selling novels, "Interview with the Vampire" and "The Vampire Lestat," the musical’s book is by Linda Woolverton and Robert Jess Roth will direct.

I just do not want to accidentally go to a show designed for the "off beat orientation" of San Francisco.
Don't want to go see a bunch of **** vampires if that is what it is about.

Anyone know?

That's the one I'm talking about. I don't know anything about it other than what I posted earlier.

How about Beach Blanket Babylon? Prince Charles checked it out a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks Danny, I am going to see LeStat in Jan. @ the Curran.
I hope she likes it.
