Arrastão do Dendê: "If this performance from the Afro-Brazilian percussion and dance troupe doesn't get you tapping your feet, your feet have been glued to the floor and you should look into that." – Phila. Magazine Kyo Daiko: "An explosion of sound, matched by uniform choreographed movements, creating an avalanche of sight and sound." – Phila. Weekly Dulsori: "Traditionalism and spectacle merged. Huge drums placed overhead, along with flutes. Deep, pounding rhythms" - NY Times

Author Talk: Jim Murphy- Real Philly History, Real Fast

In Real Philly History, Real Fast, Jim Murphy provides an original tour of the city, highlighting artistic gems such as the Dream Garden Tiffany mosaic, and profiles intriguing historical figures from military leader Commodore Barry to civil rights heroes like Lucretia Mott. Murphy also explores neighborhoods from Chinatown to the Italian Market and the unique architectural details of Carpenters' Hall and the PSFS building. This is Philly history in bites that are as digestible as a soft pretzel with mustard.
