“A Curious Newtown Evening” Coming To The Newtown Theatre

NEWTOWN, PA — The Newtown Theatre and ArtWRKD are teaming up to present “A Curious Newtown Evening” on Friday, March 24.

The event will feature “acts of a curious nature” at the theatre, plus drinks, artwork, oddities and music.

The night starts between 5 and 7 p.m. at the ArtWRKD art consortium, located at 126-128 South State Street in Newtown. There, guests can enjoy drinks and ArtWRKD’s current show, “The Wonder Room,” featuring the work of 10 different artists.

Guests will also peruse a unique collection of oddities and curiosities imported from New York’s Museum of Interesting Things. Ticketholders can come and go anytime between 5 and 7 p.m. and are encouraged to grab dinner and drinks in town before dropping by ArtWRKD.

Starting at 7 p.m., the historic Newtown Theatre will open its doors for a show that will begin at 8 p.m. The show will feature a number of “curious acts” of a sideshow nature, including a strong woman, a contortionist, Shreevash the magician, a belly dancer, and a fire eater. The soundtrack for the show will be provided by Drew Nugent's "The Midnight Society," a band that performed at the theatre’s burlesque show last November.

Tickets for this event are available at TheNewtownTheatre.com. Beer, wine, and canned cocktails will be available for purchase at the theatre before and during the show. The theatre is located at 120 N. State Street in Newtown Borough.
