On Thursday, March 3, Comet Classic Cardholders will be treated to a free perfomance of the musical “Grease” in the Penn Manor High School auditorium. Doors will open at 5:30 p.m., and the show will begin at 6. “Grease” is a rollicking homage to the idealism of the ’50s and a satire of high schoolers’ age-old desire to be rebellious and provocative.

Reservations are NOT required for this show

Cardholders will choose their own seats upon arrival. Please park in the upper-level parking lot and enter the auditorium through the doors at the back of the auditorium by the mosaic wall. A ramp is provided for those who may need it. The doors by the band room will not be open. Enjoy this free show!

Penn Manor senior citizens are invited to a free Dessert Social & Concert on Tuesday, May 17, at Penn Manor High School cafeteria. Doors will open at 5:15 p.m., and dessert will be served from 5:30 to 6:30. A concert by the PMHS Orchestra and Choruses will follow at 7 p.m. in the auditorium. Signs will direct you to parking.
