Clifford at The Keswick in Philly

Clifford the Big Red Dog is coming to town! And it’s going to be big! And red!

If you’re in the Philadelphia area, you won’t want to miss the Clifford the Big Red Dog Live! 50th Anniversary show on October 14 at the Keswick Theatre. Shows are at 1 p.m. and 4 p.m.

For 50 years, Clifford has become a literary classic encouraging children of all ages to use his Big Ideas: Share, Play Fair, Have Respect, Work Together, Be Responsible, Be Truthful, Be Kind, Help Others, Believe In Yourself and Be A Good Friend.

On Sunday, October 14^TH, Clifford, Emily Elizabeth and all their friends from Birdwell Island sing and dance and celebrate 50 Big Years.

Disclosure: I received tickets to the show in exchange for spreading the word about the show.
