      06/14/12- 06/16/12	Big Daddy Graham: Last Call Media Theatre for the Performing Arts Big Daddy Graham: Last Call Presented by Media Theatre for the Performing Arts at Media Theatre for the Performing Arts June 14-June 16, 2012 Big Daddy Graham, Philadelphia's iconic radio persona (WIP), performs thia show based on his book about his father. Poignant, humorous, and memorable, Last Call presents Big Daddy Graham in a one man show unlike his usual stand up. "This show really moved me and it will move you too." — Pat Croce "Graham delivers large important themes. A work of art." — Larry Platt, Philadelphia Daily News "Hilarious,...
      06/18/12- 08/24/12	Camp Media Theatre 2012 Media Theatre for the Performing Arts Camp Media Theatre 2012 Presented by Media Theatre for the Performing Arts at Media Theatre for the Performing Arts June 18-August 24, 2012 Camp Media Theatre 2012 is an extraordinary and exciting opportunity for young actors to study with professional directors, performers and technicians. This intensive, two-week day camp is a fun, enriching and rewarding experience. Campers write, design and perform an improvisational theatre production that is performed on the Media Theatre stage for family and friends the final Friday evening of each camp session at 5:30 pm (there is a "door cost" to see this production of $4 per...
      07/13/12- 08/05/12	Jesus Christ Superstar Media Theatre for the Performing Arts Jesus Christ Superstar Presented by Media Theatre for the Performing Arts at Media Theatre for the Performing Arts July 13-August 5, 2012 Andrew Lloyd Webber's classic rock musical performed by Media Theatre's Youth Ensemble (performers are teen and up). Jesus' final days are presented in a montage-style, completely sung Broadway musical as he seeks to change the world around him...only to have Judas' plans affect the outcome. Relevant today, this is an explosive, bombastic look at celebrity worship.
      07/18/12- 07/22/12	Forever Plaid Media Theatre for the Performing Arts Forever Plaid Presented by Media Theatre for the Performing Arts at Media Theatre for the Performing Arts July 18-July 22, 2012 The Media Theatre, an award-winning professional music theatre company, presents this deliciously goofy revue that centers on four young, eager male singers on the way to their first big concert in the 1950s. They never make it due to a car accident, but are now miraculously revived for the posthumous chance to fulfill their dreams, performing the show that never was. Singing in the closest of harmony, squabbling boyishly over the smallest intonations and executing their...
