Newtown Theatre Presents 'Philly Nelson' Tribute Concert

NEWTOWN, PA — The historic Newtown Theatre will present “Philly Nelson: A Tribute to Willie Nelson” on Sunday, February 18 at 3 p.m.

Philly Nelson isn’t a “tribute act” per se. Like the theatre’s annual John Prine concert, Philly Nelson is a jam band made up of local musicians who share a common love for the music of an American musical icon. Concertgoers can expect improvisation, spontaneity, and a unique interpretation of the vast catalog of Willie Nelson’s songs, both written and recorded.

Like the Prine tribute, Philly Nelson’s Newtown show will feature a house band and a host of special guests soon to be announced.

Tickets are available at TheNewtownTheatre.com for $32 per person or $27 for theatre members. Any remaining tickets will be sold for $42 at the door on the night of the show (if available). All seating is general admission.

Beer, wine, and canned cocktails will be available for purchase at the theatre before and during the show. The theatre is located at 120 N. State Street in Newtown Borough.
