From an old firehouse, to a strip joint, to the now-celebrated location of the annual Full Moon Festival, Sammy’s Place has been a fixture on Philadelphia’s eclectic South Street for decades. It’s a place where the locals come to celebrate life and to discover the legendary magic of the rabbit that dwells in Sammy’s moon clock hanging over the bar. The club now lies at a crossroads with the ownership threatened and its future in jeopardy. So come on in, grab a seat and experience a song-and-dance filled magical evening of love, laughter and family on SOUTH STREET – a new musical comedy.
