Landmark Anniversary, Denim Deals, Conestoga Sports Kick off Weekend in TE

It's a big weekend for activities in TE

Labor Day Weekend may be the proverbial "unofficial end of summer" but it also marks the "unofficial start" of many fall seasons, including back to school season and the start of a landmark theater season in TE.

Footlighters Celebrates 85th Season with Opening Night Party on the Lawn.

Weather permitting Footlighers Theater on Main Avenue in Berwyn will celebrate the start of its 85th Season Friday night with a gala reception on the lawn before the curtain rises its first production of the season.  The WXTU Ice Cream Truck will be on hand for the party at 7 p.m. at the theater which is across the street from St. Monica's Church. In the event of inclement weather the reception will be moved inside the theater.

The reception will be followed by the opening night of Rabbit Hole, the first production of the season. You can read much more about the show here in this announcement on TE Patch.
