Sunday in the Park with George

The San Francisco Playhouse
450 Post Street San Francisco

The story behind one of the world's greatest artistic masterpieces comes to life in Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's Pulitzer Prize-winning musical Sunday in the Park with George. Artist Georges Seurat is obsessed with finishing his greatest work, A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, at the expense of all else -- including his lover, Dot. This production at the San Francisco Playhouse traverses history, pairing Seurat's struggles with the thematically similar foibles of a contemporary descendant named George. The result is one of the most innovative musicals ever to emerge from Broadway, and a deeply personal statement on what it means to make meaningful art.
