Heading East, a Richard Rodgers Development Award-winning musical by Robert Lee and Leon Ko, is set primarily in San Francisco from 1848-1981. The musical, according to press notes, "tells the story of Siu Yee Tong, a brazen young man who travels from drought- and famine-ridden China to the shores of Gold Rush-era San Francisco determined to be America's next great success story. What follows is his lifelong quest to reinvent himself as a true-blooded American icon, against the tumultuous backdrop of 15 decades of American history. While the narrative spans nearly 150 years, the characters age over the course of a single lifetime."

Lex Liang is the production designer, Phillip Rosenberg is the lighting designer, and Leon Rothenberg is the sound designer for the concert.
