""Dear San Francisco" has held a residency at Club Fugazi since 2021, when it replaced long-standing fan favorite "Beach Blanket Babylon." The show features an athletic cast of circus performers in what's essentially a San Francisco-themed take on Cirque du Soleil. The 90-minute show runs from Wednesdays through Sundays and features singing, spoken word, acrobatics and interactive elements. It takes a relentlessly optimistic lens on the city, making it hands-down one of most family-friendly activities San Francisco has to offer."
"Although Lower may seem like an oddball addition to the show - and it's unclear just what her role will be - she has a long record of participating in offbeat performances. She wrote, directed and starred in a 2020 short film titled "Circus Person." After the success of Season 1 of "Severance," she joined Circus Flora in St. Louis, where she sang and played ukulele."
Britt Lower, best known as Helly R. from Severance, is scheduled to appear onstage at Club Fugazi for the Dear San Francisco New Year's Eve performance. Dear San Francisco has held a residency at Club Fugazi since 2021 after replacing Beach Blanket Babylon. The 90-minute show features an athletic cast of circus performers in a San Francisco-themed, Cirque du Soleil–inspired format with singing, spoken word, acrobatics and interactive elements, running Wednesdays through Sundays. The production takes a relentlessly optimistic lens on the city and is highly family-friendly. Severance concluded its second season on Apple TV and earned multiple award nominations; Lower won an Emmy this year. Lower's offbeat performance history includes writing, directing and starring in the short Circus Person and performing with Circus Flora, Shoestring Circus and Flynn Creek Circus. The New Year's Eve program will also feature magician Jay Alexander and actor-acrobat Maxwell Jenkins.
