NEWTOWN, Pa. – The historic Newtown Theatre is going green in March with two Irish-themed concerts:

  • Mick’s Company: An Afternoon of Irish Music & Humor on Wednesday, March 11 at 3 p.m. This special matinee concert has sold out two years running. Founded more than two decades ago, Mick’s Company is Philadelphia’s most fun
    Irish band. Concertgoers will enjoy an afternoon of all their favorite Irish songs and humor.
  • Celtic-American roots band RUNA on Sunday, March 15 at 7 p.m. Celebrating 15+ years together, RUNA continues to push the boundaries of Irish folk music into the Americana and roots music formats. Interweaving the haunting melodies and exuberant tunes of Ireland and Scotland with the lush harmonies and intoxicating rhythms of jazz, bluegrass, flamenco and blues, they offer a thrilling and redefining take on traditional music.

Tickets for both concerts 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.
