War Horse, Green Day’s American Idiot, The Caretaker, with Jonathan Pryce and More Part of SHN Season in San Francisco

Carole Shorenstein Hays and Robert Nederlander have announced the lineup of touring productions that will comprise the 2011-2012 SHN season to be offered at San Fracisco’s Orpheum, Curran and Golden Gate Theatres.

The series will open with Diane Paulus’ Tony Award-winning production of the classic rock musical Hair to run October 25 – November 20 at the Golden Gate Theatre.

At the Orpheum Theatre, the SHN series will include a tuneful look at the world of competitive cheerleading, Bring It On: The Musical (December 15 – January 7); Green Day’s American Idiot (June 12 – July 8, 2012), and the new 25th anniversary production of the epic Les Miserables (July 10 – August 5, 2012).

Jonathan Pryce will star in a revival of Harold Pinter’s The Caretaker, to run March 28 – April 12 at the Curran Theatre. In addition to this classic about two grown brothers, brain-damaged Aston and menacing Mick, who have their lives disrupted by a bad-tempered tramp (Pryce), the Curran will also host an engagement of the Tony Award-nominated War Horse (August 1-26, 2012).
