The Crossing @ Highmark Mann Center
A Hundred Years On
by Peter Boyer and Mark Campbell
w/ The Philadelphia Orchestra

Wednesday, June 17 @ 8pm

TD Pavilion, Highmark Mann | Philadelphia

Tickets will be available soon via Highmark Mann Center

We live a single day at the 1876 Centennial Exposition through the experience of five characters traversing Fairmount Park—site of the expo and of our concert. America’s first world’s fair, the expo introduced the telephone, the typewriter, ketchup, and the beacon arm of the Statue of Liberty; we celebrate 150 years of this historic, iconic venue that brings neighborhoods together. 

History. Celebration. Innovation. Unfulfilled Legacy. 

A Hundred Years On is commissioned for The Crossing and the Philadelphia Orchestra by The Mann Center, Philadelphia, with major support provided by The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage, and additional support provided by America250 PA and Philadelphia Funder Collaborative for the Semiquincentennial.
