Arden Theatre Company presents Bike-to-theatre Night (the first in Philly!)

On July 2, ride your bike to the Arden, enjoy valet bike parking, and see the final show of the 2009/10 season, Stephen Sondheim’s Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning musical Sunday in the Park with George!

For bicyclers only, the Arden Theater is offering a Tandem Discount! Tickets are 2 for 1! And if your bicycle is just for one, tickets are ½ priced!

Inspired by Georges Seurat's impressionist masterpiece, Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, Sunday in the Park with George celebrates the power of artistic creation and the journey through a changing landscape. It’s also about: bumbling adulterers, demanding bosses, competitive colleagues, nagging mothers, and caddy shop girls all enjoying a pleasant Sunday in the park. And that’s just the first act! As for the second, there are 9 video projectors creating stunning visual effects.

Please call 215-922-1122 to reserve tickets! Valet parking stub must be shown at the Arden box office to redeem tickets on the night of the performance. Performance begins at 8pm.

Arden Theatre Company is located in Old City at 40 North 2nd Street
