With a completely new script to share, Burning Coal Theatre Company returns to the Raleigh City Museum for a fourth year to explore Raleigh's history this October.

Streets & Alleys, an original play by Oakwood author Ian Finley and Rebecca Wyrick will visit sites along Fayetteville and Wilmington Streets. Along the way, audiences will pass through 200 years of Raleigh's history, from the civil rights protests of the 1950s, to the very founding of the city in 1792. Stories of comical pickpockets, ghostly murderers and buried treasure make this a Halloween treat for the whole family.

The promenade performance will begin at Raleigh City Museum (220 Fayetteville St, Raleigh), and travel along Fayetteville Street. Performances are Friday & Saturday, October 28th & 29th at 6:30pm and 6:50pm and Sunday, October 30th at 2:00pm and 2:20pm.

Tickets for the event are $15 for adults, $10 for students, and may be obtained by calling 919.834.4001 or visiting www.burningcoal.org.
