Patty From HR: Mo Patty Mo Problems!

Brace yourself for another mandatory corporate training. This time, Patty tackles her biggest topic yet: diversity and inclusion. Armed with a newfound appreciation for hip-hop and fresh from her trip to the Fyre Festival, Patty navigates the complex issues of representation, equality and getting the PowerPoint to work. But can everyone’s least favorite HR manager confront her own White Lady Privilege in time to save corporate America from itself? And should she perform that rap song she wrote, or is that appropriation?

When: Thursday, Aug. 1, 7 p.m.
Where: Oasis, 298 11th St.
Price: $10

Cabaret

From the event description:

Cliff Bradshaw, an American author working on a novel in pre-World War II Berlin, falls in love with the vivacious Sally Bowles, a singer at the local Kit Kat Klub. Their dreamlike romance is tested by the political upheaval that changes their lives dramatically. Even after 50 years, this classic, Tony Award-winning musical remains painfully prophetic, reminding us through Sally and the Emcee’s lost souls what horrors humans are capable of, lest we ever forget.

When: Friday, Aug. 2, 8 p.m.
Where: San Francisco Playhouse, 450 Post St.
Price: $42
