City Winery Philadelphia presents Haley Reinhart: The Promise Tour live on October 26th at 7:30pm.
A timeless voice outlasts eras. It feels just as at home in the sixties as it does in the TikTok age. It also resounds louder as time goes on. Haley Reinhart brandishes such a voice. The double platinum-certified Chicago-born singer and songwriter was introduced to the world in 2011, when Haley landed third place and became a fan favorite on season 10 of American Idol. More recently, Haley returned to Idol this time as a mentor, coaching contestants singing in the Soul Genre.
Her dynamic presence powered four solo albums - Listen Up! (2012) on Interscope Records, Better (2016) on Red Dot, What’s That Sound? (2017) on Concord Records, and Lo- Fi Soul (2019) on Haley’s self-owned label, Reinhart Records. Haley latest work is the extended play Off The Ground (2022). All seven original songs are either written or co-written by Haley.

The sublime is confused with the ridiculous in this savage commentary on the human condition, a staple of 20th -century drama. A small town is besieged when its human citizens inexplicably begin turning into rhinoceroses, one after the other, after the other, after the other. Berenger, an indisputably unimpressive citizen of the town, must decide if he will give in to transformation or commit to his own humanity.

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is a musical with
music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book by Burt
Shevelove and Larry Gelbart.
Broadway's greatest farce is light, fast-paced, witty, irreverent and
one of the funniest musicals ever written. A Funny Thing Happened
on the Way to the Forum takes comedy back to its roots, combining
situations from time-tested, 2000-year-old comedies of Roman
playwright, Plautus, with the infectious energy of classic vaudeville.
A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is a nonstop
laughfest in which Pseudolus, a crafty slave, struggles to win the hand
of a beautiful, but slow-witted, courtesan named Philia for his young
master, Hero, in exchange for freedom. The plot twists and turns with
cases of mistaken identity, slamming doors and a showgirl or two.
This unforgettable, hysterical musical allows a terrific ensemble of
comedic actors to shine – "something for everyone, a comedy
tonight!".

Three actors play over a dozen different roles including Stalin’s daughter, Russian school girls and the son of an American white supremacist.
A psychology professor's search for his missing wife launches us on a time-hopping fugue, weaving together the stories of Stalin's daughter defecting to America and the son of a white supremacist growing to doubt his beliefs. An explosively theatrical interrogation of how we make decisions, how we change our minds, and how much responsibility we bear for the things we do not control.

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is a musical with
music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book by Burt
Shevelove and Larry Gelbart.
Broadway's greatest farce is light, fast-paced, witty, irreverent and
one of the funniest musicals ever written. A Funny Thing Happened
on the Way to the Forum takes comedy back to its roots, combining
situations from time-tested, 2000-year-old comedies of Roman
playwright, Plautus, with the infectious energy of classic vaudeville.
A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is a nonstop
laughfest in which Pseudolus, a crafty slave, struggles to win the hand
of a beautiful, but slow-witted, courtesan named Philia for his young
master, Hero, in exchange for freedom. The plot twists and turns with
cases of mistaken identity, slamming doors and a showgirl or two.
This unforgettable, hysterical musical allows a terrific ensemble of
comedic actors to shine – "something for everyone, a comedy
tonight!".

The Bicentennial of 1976 was more than a celebration of 200 years—it became a stage for protest, advocacy, and national reflection.
In the aftermath of Vietnam and Watergate, the celebration of the U.S. Bicentennial in 1976 sparked an extraordinary national conversation about the country’s past, present, and future. The anniversary also became an opportunity for many women to advocate for greater equality and promote the study of women’s history. In Philadelphia, the Bicentennial Women’s Center organized programs and initiatives centered on feminist education, advocacy, and community action.
Hear from Marc Stein, author of Bicentennial: A Revolutionary History of the 1970s, as he explores this transformative era in American history. He will be joined by Carol Tracy and Dr. Cynthia Little, who will share firsthand accounts of their work with the Bicentennial Women’s Center.

You’ll Be Okay: A Bad Daughter's Guide to Survival is an exhibition exploring concepts of trauma, breaking patterns, and the creation of new narratives through viewer participation. The show is composed entirely of artworks by Veronica Cianfrano from various stages of her artistic career, curated by Jessica Clark, a long-time friend and collaborator who has known her through many of those stages.
The totality of our experiences makes us who we are; the totality of an artist’s catalog has a similar role. Past and present hang together on these walls, just as thoughts of the past bubble up into our daily lives. Viewers are invited to actively create their own stories based on the artworks present in the show, deriving meaning from the imagery, materials, and formal choices made by the artist. Gallery attendees are able to move through the show unencumbered, empowered to inhabit roles of author and creator. The viewer achieves what the artist cannot by viewing the work from a different perspective; they offer u…

Every step at the St. Chris Cares for Kids 5K brings us closer to a community where every child can get high-quality, compassionate healthcare, no matter their circumstances. Join us for a morning of movement, connection, and purpose at the Philadelphia Zoo, with every registration directly supporting the kids and families who count on St. Christopher's Hospital for Children.
The 5K and Family Fun Run/Walk both start and finish inside the zoo, so participants will be right among the animal exhibits throughout. The 5K route winds through the zoo grounds before looping out along the perimeter and back in to finish at the start line, passing many exhibits along the way. The 1-mile Family Fun Run/Walk stays within the heart of the zoo, offering a shorter, family-friendly route where kids can enjoy seeing the animals up close.
Whether you're racing for a personal best, walking with your family, or cheering from the sidelines, you're helping make sure no child in our community goes without the care they deserve.…

Be transformed by the heartbreaking serenity of Gustav Mahler’s Ninth Symphony. Led by Grammy Award-winning conductor Yannick Nézet-Séguin, this transcendent farewell—hailed as “the greatest Mahler ever composed” by Viennese composer Alban Berg—showcases Mahler at the height of his skill, pushing symphonic form to its limits. From its poignant opening motives to final tender notes that slowly dissipate into silence, follow a journey that celebrates the splendor of life—and the peaceful recognition of its inevitable end. Lyrical, searching, and deeply human, this monumental work unfolds with extraordinary emotional depth and color.
Setting the stage for this introspective program, Valerie Coleman’s Umoja—Swahili for unity—opens the evening. This stirring orchestral song harnesses the expressive power of the full ensemble to reflect our society’s challenges and tensions, ultimately “emerging into sunlit joy” (Philadelphia Inquirer)—and an undeniable affirmation of our shared humanity.
