5 Fun Things To Do This Weekend In Bucks County

BUCKS COUNTY, PA —Another weekend, another washout —at least possibly for Saturday.

With rain once again in the weekend forecast, Saturday is expected to be stormy and wet. But don't fret. Sunday's forecast looks a little better and some events planned for this weekend in Bucks County are moving to Sunday rain dates. (See what was canceled or rescheduled.)

But there's also plenty to do indoors as well.

What says Halloween better than the "Rocky Horror Show" —a version of the classic "Rocky Horror Picture Show." The play makes its debut Friday at the Bucks County Playhouse in New Hope.

There's another way to shake off the expected dreary day. Swifties rejoice! The Taylor Swift concert movie is now in AMC theaters. (See locations in Bucks County below.)

And while the weather may be wacky, Historic Fallsington Day won't let the forecast rain on its parade, or in this case, its festival. Organizers said they will push through Saturday.

In Morrisville, they will walk between the raindrops on Saturday for a ceremony to mark George Washington's Cherry Tree, 285 years later.

With the weather improving on Sunday, the Slate Hill Cemetery Ghost Tour moved to its rain date. Sounds spooky!

These are some of the events planned in Bucks County this weekend:

"Rocky Horror Show" Launches At Bucks County Playhouse

The Bucks County Playhouse’s October tradition returns — with an all-new production of “Richard O’Brien’s The Rocky Horror Show!” A musical that inspired the 1975 classic cult film, “The Rocky Horror Picture Show,” follows innocent couple Brad and Janet as they seek shelter at a mysterious old castle on a dark and stormy night, where they encounter transvestite Dr. Frank ‘N’ Furter, his “perfect” creation Rocky, and an assortment of other crazy creatures. The play starts on Oct. 13 and runs through Oct. 28. Visit the playhouse website for more details.

You may need to bring your rain gear. (Read this Patch story for more details.)

George Washington's Cherry Tree, 285 Years Later, In Morrisville

A gathering will be held at noon Saturday at Robert Morris Plaza in Morrisville Saturday to commemorate George Washington's Cherry Tree, 285 years later. Organizers expect to hold the ceremony for a short time but it might be ideal to bring an umbrella. The cherry tree of course is part of myth or legend when Washington couldn't tell a lie about cutting down the cherry tree. George himself is expected to be there to share the history.

Slate Hill Cemetery Ghost Tour Sunday In Lower Makefield Township

Slate Hill Burying Ground, with most of its graves dating to 18th-century Quaker settlers, was established in 1690. It's located at Yardley-Morrisville Road and is probably the oldest burial ground in Bucks County. It will also be home Sunday evening to a ghost tour from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. A $5 donation is suggested. And there will be stories to tell about those who are buried there.
