This week’s BEN Around Philly is action packed! First, Kristen is joined by Nik Wallenda and Elayne Kramer, two of the stars of Big Apple Circus, with 2 shows – sometimes 3 shows a day now through Sunday, June 24th at Philadelphia Mills Mall. Tickets at www.BigAppleCircus.com starting at $15 (and free parking)!

Then Christina Dowd – Executive Director, and Brandon Szeker – Director of Development at Philly LOVES Beer join Matt and Kristen on the morning show to kick off Philly BEER Week 2018 and talk about what’s “on tap” for this year’s event. Find the details at www.PhillyLovesBeer.org and join the fun June 1-10th at bars, beer gardens and restaurants all over the region.

Finally, Kristen speaks with Mike O’Malley (Nickelodeon, Glee, Shameless, lots more) about the brand new Jimmy Buffett Musical, “Escape to Margaritaville” on Broadway and now open at the Marquis Theater in NYC. Mike O’Malley is one of the co-writers of the show and was so incredibly nice to talk to. The best part? The interview offers a text word to enter to win one of two pairs of tickets to the Broadway show!
