Society Hill Playhouse
Description
The Society Hill Playhouse located on Society Hill (surprise!) has been an institution in the city since 1959. It is the city's first professional theatre house to bring world-class plays from different parts of America, as well as Canada and Europe. It has also produced hundreds of plays, such as Brecht and Weill's 'Threepenny Opera' in 1962 to Jean Genet's 'The Blacks' in 1965. Others include Brian Friel's 'Volunteers in 1978' and 'Freedom of the City' in 1979. Housed within the historic David Garrick Hall, the Playhouse boasts of two stages—the Main Stage and the Cabaret Theatre, which seats 90.
Absolute riot! And the playhouse was the perfect intimate spot to share a few laughs with some great friends and family. Going back again! (What a cast!) Bravo!
If you are short, you may want to take a booster seat. The chairs are all on a flat level and you can not see from the back. But the play Menopause was very good.
First, the theatre is on the second floor so it is hard for elderly people. This is an older theatre in need of cometics but otherwise the play Meopause made up for the cosmetics. The actors were good enough to be on Broadway.
I had seen do Black Patent Shoes Really Reflect Up there a few years ago - also a blast. Well worth going to their plays.
