WST's 15th Annual Supercalifragilisticexpiali-AUCTION Set for 10/24

Walnut Street Theatre's 15th Annual Live and Silent Auction is Supercalifragilisticexpiali-AUCTION. In addition to an evening filled with delightful temptations of luxury vacations, premium seats to Philadelphia sporting events and designer accessories, guests will enjoy a special preview performance by cast members of Walnut Street Theatre's production of Mary Poppins. The event will take place on Friday, October 24, 2014 at Walnut Street Theatre. The Silent Auction will begin at 6:00pm, followed by a Live Auction at 8:00pm.

The evening's proceeds will benefit the award-winning and rapidly expanding education and outreach programs coordinated by the Walnut's Education Department. The impressive programs include the Touring Outreach Company, which uses theatre to broach important social issues with students at local schools; the Adopt-a-School program, a multi-year partnership with three inner-city Philadelphia schools that integrates dramatic techniques into classroom curriculums as an engaging approach to effectively reach all students; the Professional Apprentice program, which provides hands-on training for young theatre professionals; and the Walnut Street Theatre School, which offers classes for children, teens and adults year-round. With support from individuals in the community, over 156,000 local students and families participated in the Walnut's various educational programs last year alone.

Guests attending Supercalifragilisticexpiali-AUCTION will enjoy festive food and drink, play exciting games and get a head start on their holiday shopping. With over 200 fabulous items up for grabs, guests are sure to find something "Practically Perfect in Every Way."
