Happy Mother's Day! How are you planning to celebrate mom today?

Founded in 1973, the Wilma Theater has received more Barrymore Awards than any other theatre company on Earth, which is pretty impressive. This exceptional incubator was created to develop theatrical artists in the community and encourage the production of original works. In 1979, the company began collaborating with Czech artists Blanka and Jiri Zizka, who took the group to new levels of success. The pair moved the company to their new 300-seat theatre in 2006, and their productions have played in Philadelphia and all over the world.

It’s a great place to see a performance, with incredible sightlines and acoustics, and the material is uniformly great. The group has worked with luminaries like Tom Stoppard and Arthur Miller. Their seasons are innovative and invigorating, pushing boundaries and tackling challenging subjects. The Wilma offers a number of discount programs for students and seniors.
