SUMMARY:William Henry Harrison: The Musical
DESCRIPTION:Q: Which President had the shortest term in U.S. history? A: William Henry Harrison. \n\nBut what do you know about William Henry Harrison? He’s the president who died after just one month in office\, right? Because he gave a really long speech in the rain without a coat? That’s the one! Anything else? No? Well\, that’s all about to change…\nDelight in the preposterous yet painstakingly accurate musical parody about our shortest-lived U.S. President! Detailing the inane absurdity of Harrison’s life and death\, William Henry Harrison: The Musical dives deep into the minutiae of U.S. history\, indulging in every trivial detail. Inspired by this pub trivia question\, a modern-day group of friends comes together to sing the un-sung story of a president known only for his singular fun-fact (if that!)\, a forgotten political party\, and an overlooked era that will leave you speechless…

SUMMARY:To Be Here | Lynda Grace Black & Magda Martinez
DESCRIPTION:What does it take to be here? And what does it mean to belong right now\, in this moment\, in this city? \nArtists Lynda Grace Black and Magda Martinez and an ensemble of Philadelphians invite you to TO BE HERE\, to immerse yourself in this community-rooted performance and exhibition on June 11\, 12\, and 13. \nTO BE HERE uplifts new stories of peoplehood\, finding the extraordinary in our everyday lives. These stories of resilience and growth reflect back the complexities and sacrifices inherent in belonging to many homelands and heartlands\, tracing lines along a new map that charts what it means to be here now. \nTO BE HERE unfolded over many months of gathering\, listening\, and making through story gatherings. From these encounters\, Black and Martinez wove together an art installation of and by the participants — a textured portrait of collective memory and cultural inheritance. The ensembles’ words and stories come to life as they voice their own performances\, with direction by Tanaquil Marquez and filmed pieces from Anula Shetty. TO BE HERE reflects a broader\, more inclusive vision of being Philadelphian: one that makes space for everyone’s story. \nCOMMUNITY ENSEMBLE \nAnonymous (2)\nAliyah Gardner\nAthena Dugan\nBarbara Kigozi\nGerard Silva-Torres\nM.

SUMMARY:In Pursuit: Philadelphia and the Making of America
DESCRIPTION:Film + conversation examining how Philadelphia’s past and present continue to shape the American story. \n\n\n\n\nEpisode 4 Overview: Common Ground (1790–1838) \nEpisode 4 of In Pursuit: Philadelphia and the Making of America examines Philadelphia as the young nation’s capital\, where the ideals of self-government are tested in everyday life. As political divisions deepen and crises like the Yellow Fever epidemic strain the city\, free Black Philadelphians build institutions and assert their rights\, with leaders like Richard Allen\, Absalom Jones\, and James Forten shaping a growing movement for equality and reform. \nThe episode then follows the rise of abolitionism and public education\, as Black and white reformers work together to expand opportunity and challenge injustice. Yet these efforts provoke fierce resistance\, culminating in mob violence\, the destruction of Pennsylvania Hall\, and the stripping of Black men’s voting rights. \nIn a city striving to create shared civic space\, this program asks a central question: how can common ground be sustained when democracy itself remains unequal?

SUMMARY:What The Constitution Means To Me\, by Heidi Schreck
DESCRIPTION:Direct from Broadway\, playwright Heidi Schreck’s boundary-breaking play breathes new life into our Constitution and imagines how it will shape the next generation of Americans.\n\n  \nFifteen year old Heidi earned her college tuition by winning Constitutional debate competitions across the United States. In this hilarious\, hopeful and achingly human new play\, she resurrects her teenage self in order to trace the profound relationship between four generations of women and the founding document that shaped their lives. \n  \nSchreck’s timely and galvanizing play\, directed by Oliver Butler\, became a sensation off-Broadway before transferring to Broadway where it received two Tony Award nominations among countless other accolades. The New York Times hailed What the Constitution Means to Me as “not just the best play to open on Broadway so far this season\, but also the most important.”

SUMMARY:Run Ben Run
DESCRIPTION:From Philadelphia favorites Applied Mechanics comes a spectacular new show\, RUN BEN RUN: a maniacal\, surreal satire starring famous Bens from throughout American history\, from Ben Franklin to Ben Affleck. Thrown together on a film set with the goal of making a movie about the John Gast painting American Progress\, the Bens wrestle with identity\, fame\, and the versions of American identity that live within each of us. The play surrounds the audience with a panoply of different offerings from the different Bens. Will Ben Affleck be able to finish his movie without his star\, Ben Franklin? Will Ben Vereen dance his way out of danger? Will Benedict Arnold clear his name? And will Benito Antonio Ocasio Cortez (Bad Bunny) finally write the song to bring us together? The Bens begin to wonder: can they rewrite history? Or should they just… run away? \n  \nUsing drag\, choreography\, pastiche\, and an absurd original script\, some of Philly’s favorite performers craft a spectacle that tears apart the underlying assumptions about American Progress.
