WALNUT STREET THEATRE COVID-19 UPDATE: We are living through an unprecedented moment in our history as we, our city, and the world are responding to COVID-19. As this crisis unfolds, the safety and well-being of the entire Walnut Street Theatre family is our first priority. With a heavy heart, as of March 16 we have cancelled all performances of The Best Man, Popcorn Falls, and Junie B. Jones. America's Oldest Theatre is a not-for-profit organization and this disruption is... creating uncertainty for the theatre and other cultural organizations. Please note that we will not be able to respond to individual ticket inquiries at this time. Ticket-holders will be contacted by email in the near future. We ask our patrons for their patience, support and generosity during this difficult time.
