For $10 (cash preferred) you get admission, a drink voucher, and two hours to play with science exhibits... with a beer or wine in hand. Think Night at the Museum meets a cash bar. 100% yes. Adventure Buddy's highlight was the RaceIT exhibit, where he built and raced cars -- only to lose to my championship Houpe-De-Ville (sorry, not sorry). My favorite? The Hurricane Chamber that blasted winds up to 91mph. Cool? More like cold. I almost lost my contact lenses. Totally worth it. Even though the exhibits are geared toward kids, there's something magical about rediscovering them as an adult. Nostalgia hits, curiosity kicks in, and the 21+ crowd makes the vibe peaceful, playful, and fun. Between touching a tornado, watching turtles migrate across Earth, and laughing at ourselves while sipping drinks, it was an inexpensive, unique date night during 3rd in the Burg. Highly recommend pawning off the crotchgoblins with grandma and checking it out.

The play was great - live music was a fun edition. Overall a good experience and will definitely come again. We will just be more strategic where we sit.

Sometimes the best adventures are the ones I barely plan. I was scrolling social media when I…read morehappened across an event at the Carlisle Theatre for a Halfway to St. Patty's Day concert featuring the Kilmaine Saints. I'd never even HEARD of the Kilmaine Saints, but apparently they've been around for 18 YEARS, which made me feel like I'd somehow missed an entire chapter of Central PA knowledge. I made a mental note that the concert might be fun, continued along with my life and figured I'd see how my Saturday adventures unfolded. Well, the Universe left me just enough time to make it work. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! I hopped onto the Carlisle Theatre website, bought myself a $25 ticket for the 7:30 p.m. show and headed to Carlisle for a completely unplanned evening of Celtic rock. Purchasing my ticket online was incredibly simple, and I lucked out again when I arrived and found plenty of street parking right outside the theatre. On this particular Saturday evening, there was no circling blocks, no parking drama and no Responsible Adult Me wondering whether she'd misunderstood a parking sign. WINNING! I'd only been inside the Carlisle Theatre once before for a New Year's Eve celebration, so I was excited to actually experience a show there. The theatre has been part of downtown Carlisle since 1939 and continues to host concerts, films and live theatre, which is pretty darn cool when you think about how many old theatres haven't survived. Is the building showing its age? Absolutely! The theatre could definitely use some love and TLC. The seats, in particular, weren't especially comfortable and have clearly supported MANY generations of butts before mine. But for a couple hours? They did the job. More importantly, the theatre itself handled the concert really well. The sound was great, I had a good view of the stage and the historic setting gave the whole evening more personality than seeing the same show in some generic modern venue. The snack bar was also open, and although I resisted, the smell of fresh popcorn floating through the theatre was doing its absolute best to destroy my self-control. Staff throughout my visit were friendly and kind, and getting inside couldn't have been easier. I pulled up the ticket on my phone, they scanned it and BOOM. I was ready for my completely spontaneous Celtic rock adventure. And I'm really glad I went. There's something I love about having a historic little theatre right in downtown Carlisle where I can scroll past an event I've never heard of, spend $25 and suddenly have completely different plans for my Saturday night. That's exactly what community theatres like this SHOULD do. Give us somewhere to see something new, hear something different and occasionally say, "Sure, why NOT go to a Halfway to St. Patty's Day concert tonight?" The Carlisle Theatre may be showing its age, but there's still plenty of life happening inside it. I'll absolutely be back for another show. And apparently I need to start paying closer attention to their calendar because who knows what the heck I'll accidentally discover next!
