Even though it doesn’t feel like it just yet, fall is here in Pittsburgh! Don’t tell that to my kids who were swimming yesterday or to my air condition that’s pulling some serious overtime right now, but make no mistake that fall is upon us. And what’s not to love about the change of seasons in Pittsburgh? Vibrant golds and reds and oranges dot the hillsides, bonfires and smore’s usher in chilly evenings, Judy Moody and Stink come to town and there’s An Elephant in the Garden.
Wait, what?
No, I’m not still on meds from the hysterectomy. I’m talking about the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust’s annual Children’s Theater and EQT Bridge Theater!
Here’s the deal: The Children’s Theater is celebrating FIFTY YEARS of outer space adventures and deep-sea dives; of favorite characters and new friends; of award-winning, professional theater for ages three and up. This year’s shows are sure to commemorate the series’ fifty years of magical journeys and they’re easy to get to since they’re held downtown and around the Pittsburgh area.
Beginning in November and running through May, both the Children’s Theater and EQT Bridge Theater will be entertaining our youngest audience and families. Lucky for us, these series overlap with our change o’ seasons, namely our holiday season! So if you’re looking to be the most impressive gift-giver to ever give, the one who gifts experiences instead of stuff, look no further than the gift that keeps on giving: season passes.
GIVEAWAY ALERT!
I’ve teamed up with my pals at the Cultural Trust to give away one 4-pack subscription to EACH series. That means TWO lucky readers will win FREE season passes for the Children’s Theater or EQT Bridge Theater.
