The S.F. Symphony's next season will highlight the 20th anniversary of Michael Tilson Thomas as music director, and celebrate his 70th birthday at special events.
The show is promoted with this line: "Sex, drugs, and classical music illustrate what happens behind the curtains at the symphony can be just as captivating as what occurs on stage." No joke, although it's classified as a comedy.
