🎭 Congratulations, cast of Working A Musical!

This show sweeps around the workday, introducing us to cleaning women, hedge fund managers, bricklayers, delivery drivers, housewives, etc. The play is about the secret (and not so secret) hopes, dreams, fantasies, and sorrows of the United States of America working people from all walks of life.

🗓 Working clocks in at the Misciagna Family Arts Center at Penn State Altoona October 29, 30, & 31 at 7:30 PM. Doors open at 7 PM.

🎟️ Performances are free and open to the public thanks to the Kjell Meling Arts for All Initiative. For further information, call the box office at 814-949-5452 or visit the Penn State Altoona website at www.altoona.psu.edu.

👀 Stay tuned to see behind-the-scenes peaks at our students and community members ✨️ Working ✨️ towards opening night!
