What types of shows and events can I see in San Francisco theaters?

There is no shortage of plays, musicals, and theatrical events taking place on an annual basis in San Francisco. At any given time, you can catch a hit Broadway show, everything from "Beautiful: The Carole King Musical" to "Hamilton." Family shows abound as well, such as "Disney's Beauty and The Beast" and "The Lion King." In December, holiday fare like "A Christmas Carol" reigns supreme.
