'Super WHY Live!' Scheduled for State Theatre

Tickets are on sale for 'Super WHY Live: You’ve Got the Power!', to be held at the State Theatre on Wednesday, May 8. Two performances - 3 pm and 6 pm - are scheduled.

Based on the top-rated, Emmy-nominated preschool TV series that airs on PBS KIDS everyday across the U.S., Super WHY Live brings entertainment and education together in a live show unlike any your family has seen before. Super WHY Live was written by Super WHY creator Angela Santomero, with music by Jack Antonoff, of the Grammy® Award-winning band “fun.” The show is produced by S2BN Entertainment (Yo Gabba Gabba! Live, Spider-Man on Broadway, and Rock of Ages: The Musical) in association with Out of the Blue Enterprises.

Super WHY Live will stop in 26 cities across the U.S. in April and May, taking kids and parents on a live reading adventure traveling inside a book to find the answer to the question, “Who has the Greatest Super Power in the World?” The show is uplifting, entertaining, and educational. It features kids’ favorite literacy-powered super heroes: Alpha Pig with “Alphabet Power,” Wonder Red with “Word Power,” Princess Presto with “Spelling Power,” Super Why with the "Power to Read," and their puppy pal Woofster.

These performances of Super WHY Live are sponsored by the Bristol-Myers Squibb Children’s Hospital at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital.  

For an extra special experience, VIP - You’ve Got the Power! Party Packages offer premium seats and a meet and greet with your favorite characters after the show for $125 per ticket. Regular ticket prices range from $25-45.
