Sweet Charity (1987 tour, San Francisco, Debbie Allen)

Cy Coleman, Dorothy Fields, and Neil Simon’s legendary musical masterpiece 'Sweet Charity' completed an extensive national touring company production that brought the high-octane 1986 Broadway revival frameworks directly to San Francisco's historic Golden Gate Theatre in 1987. Re-creating Bob Fosse's signature sultry jazz choreography and thundering big band orchestrations, the blockbuster tour achieved permanent historical status across the country by starring vocal icon Debbie Allen triumphantly executing her definitive lead turn, available here in final copies.
