The Soiled Dove first came to Alameda eight years ago, performing at both Alameda Point and in an empty lot adjacent to Oakland's Fox Theater.
This newly announced run marks the return for the dinner-and-circus show, set in 1890s rough-and-tumble San Francisco.
Earlier this year, Baez performed at the Masonic in San Francisco for a benefit concert that doubled as a tribute to her activism and musical career.
The Soiled Dove runs Sept. 5-Nov. 1 at Alameda Point in Alameda, with standing-room tickets priced at $81.16.
