TICKETING NOW PROVIDED BY THE WASHINGTON CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS

Our next show, School House Rock Live! Opens Friday, May 21st.

The Emmy Award-winning 1970s Saturday morning cartoon series that taught history, grammar, math, science and politics through clever, tuneful songs is not only making a small-screen comeback, instructing a whole new generation to “Unpack Your Adjectives” and “Do The Circulations,” it’s lighting up stages everywhere, from school multi-purpose rooms to university and regional theatres all around the country.


Tom, a nerve-wracked school teacher nervous about his first day of teaching, tries to relax by watching TV when various characters representing facets of his personality emerge from the set and show him how to win his students over with imagination and music, through such beloved Schoolhouse Rock songs as “Just A Bill", “Lolly, Lolly, Lolly” and “Conjunction Junction.”

Children just discovering the TV series to “Generation X-ers” seeking a taste of nostalgia will delight in this sure-fire entertainment that’s simply good, clean – and educational – fun.

All of our shows will be at SPSCC’s Center for the Arts…the same location you have come to love, the Black Box theater. The difference is how you buy tickets.

Please Note: All tickets to the black box are GENERAL ADMISSION- no reserved seats, arrive early for best seating.

Tickets will only be sold by the new management team of the theater- The Washington Center. Questions about ticket sales should all go to them.  Please call their box office at (360) 753-8586, or use the link below to order now.
