Located within Hotel Nikko (222 Mason Street, San Francisco), Feinstein's at the Nikko presents a wide range of entertainers from stage and screen all within an intimate 140-seat cabaret setting. There is a $20 food and beverage minimum per person inside the showroom which guests can use towards cocktails as well as a variety of small plates crafted exclusively for Feinstein's at the Nikko by Executive Chef Philippe Striffeler, through Restaurant Anzu. Cheese and dessert platters will also be available in the showroom.

Created in 1982 by Alessandrini, Forbidden Broadway has since spawned 18 editions, eight cast recordings and a record-breaking 30-year-run in New York. Updated regularly to stay fresh and up-to-date with the sensations, the bombs, and the gossip of Broadway, the musical spoof has been entertaining audiences worldwide since 1982 and has received national and international attention with performances in over 200 U.S. cities as well as engagements in Tokyo, Singapore, Sydney and London. Forbidden Broadway has received a number of public accolades, including nine Drama Desk Awards, the 2005 Drama Desk Award for Best Off-Broadway Musical, a Special Tony Award for Excellence in Theatre, an Obie Award and a Lucille Lortel Award. One of New York's longest running musical comedy revues, the show features outrageous costumes, rewrites of songs and dead-on impressions by a four-person cast and a pianist.
