While engaging the community and expanding Philadelphia’s summertime cultural scene, Shakespeare in Clark Park re-imagines the world of the park through the works of Shakespeare. We hold a core value that public art is both important and necessary, and we are committed to continuing to provide access to free and surprising performance in a community-centered environment. We believe in the continuing value of presenting Shakespeare’s work while interrogating it through a contemporary lens, and that participating in this cultural tradition allows for an extraordinary level of self-recognition and personal fulfillment for audiences and artists alike.

House venue that tries to host unique shows on Fridays and Saturdays. But it's also trying to do more with film and potlucks. I went down here to hang out with my friends Seizure 17 and was instantly impressed. It had a fresh mix of bands that I either haven't seen on the house show circuit before, or where mixing it up at a new house for the first time. And that's the way it should be. there was some fresh looking art in the living room, and the basement venue was pretty big. At 6'5" I had no trouble standing up without bumping my head, and even had a bit of room to get my dance on. They were even cool enough to let my friends set up a video screen for their set. Chernobyl is maintained by Da Comrade, a Philly band I haven't had the chance to hear yet (might be taking care of that after Rum Bar when they play with my friends again). But I've heard nothing but good things and they've played with some great bands like Agent Moosehead and Saudi Arabia. Looks like there are no shows coming up in May, but definitely try to scope the venue out on Mysapce to see what their cooking up for June.

Despite starting a bit later, due to a group ahead of us, we were able to upgrade our Groupon to play multiple games. Then the set up from there was quick and easy. The VR games the staff facilitate really are a lot of fun, even for non-gamers like me. It's also just enough activity to work up a sweat, but not enough to drain you. You will laugh and shout a lot and truly feel submersed for a good hour. I was glad we paid extra to upgrade, as we got to play a variety of games with different degrees of difficulty. The staff was great, guiding us the whole time, and the lounge has a waiting area with TVs and music. It was a dope experience.

Seriously though Third Story has dished out 30 years of recording excellence and has worked with some of the best. Aside from the Milkmen they have worked with King Britt, Tori Amos, Ruder Than You, Chuck Berry, and an endless list of others. Most recently they helped do mastering work for my friends Bloody Wall Of Gore, and Seizure 17. Both bands have stood by the work that Third Story did. they really do a good job of picking up on every nuance of a song and making the sound just right. They also work with both analog and digital recording. they have a fully automated Pro Tools, and two 24 track 2" analogue tape machines on hand in their studio. so they really offer the best of both worlds.

The car show gets a few hundred cars. If you want to enter your car it's $20 cash at the gate. They give you a small tin plaque and a registration card for your window. Since my car isn't winning any awards I don't stay till 3 pm to await the judges choices. My car is nice, but not prize winning nice but that's ok. It's a fun few hours.

Lots of parking available around the main entrance area. We went early in the morning around 10am. We spent most of the first few hours walking around the zoo that had a huge chicken range, duck pond, cow, goats, sheep and horses. There are vending machine to buy corns to feed the animals. We had to get our own quarters as the coin exchange machine was broken. Around the noon we head to the Linvilla Grill. They had some good pizza and chicken tenders. There were few outdoor benched to dine. Price was little steep. The freshly squeezed lemonade was outrageous. They make the whole thing by grinding lemon right in front and put it in a huge plastic 32 oz jar. It is so worth for $8. We also bought some peaches and cooking sauces from the market. Cash is preferred, for credit card they charge fee at the market checkout.
