A Taste of Philadelphia is a chance to indulge in fine dining on a fast food budget with entrees that might cost $20 or more in fine dining venues but each taste here is five dollars or less. This event design allows visitors and participants to stroll the Great Plaza at Penn’s Landing while sampling delicious food and learning more about what makes Philadelphia food famous. Plus, each day of the event will be accompanied by exciting live stage entertainment.
A Taste of Philadelphia will highlight Philadelphia’s reputation as a restaurant city for three days.

There will be a variety of incredible edibles to tease your palate including beverages, ethnic specialties, and an array of grilled delights will be available, along with summertime standards like burgers and fries.

The creator and original cast of 'Mystery Science Theater 3000' take the stage to offer their signature brand of wit and sarcastic commentary on a screened movie. Like MST3K, the show was created by JOEL HODGSON and features the same team that first brought the Peabody award winning cult-classic series to life: TRACE BEAULIEU (Crow, Dr. Forrester), J. ELVIS WEINSTEIN (Tom Servo, Dr. Erhardt), FRANK CONNIFF (TV's Frank), and MARY JO PEHL (Pearl Forrester).
That is what Joel Hodgson says about the show:
Cinematic Titanic Live is the theatrical version of movie riffing-- the comedic art form we created over twenty years ago in the form of Mystery Science Theater 3000. Performed in a theater, the five members of the cast take the stage and riff on a feature film in front of a live audience.
Most of our engagements last the weekend, where we perform a different film on both Friday and Saturday nights, hence, our current tour is titled "Two Nights Two Movies".
