What To Do This Weekend In Eastern PA: Nov 2, 3

EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA, PA —With residents going to the polls in Tuesday's general election, it might not be a bad idea this weekend to brush up on a little history.

There are two ways to do that in Philadelphia this weekend.

You can catch the first national tour of "Hamilton" at The Academy of Music in Philadelphia this weekend. It's a play about one of the nation's Founding Fathers.

With all this talk about the U.S. Constitution, why not check it out and learn about its integral foundation of our nation. You can do that at the National Constitution Center, the site of the presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.

Meanwhile, we have an apple festival at Peddler's Village, and the Brubeck Brothers playing jazz in Newtown.

These are some of the events planned for this weekend in Eastern Pennsylvania:

"Hamilton" Featured At The Academy of Music
