For this 50th anniversary celebration, Pilobolus questions its own “givens,” turns its traditions sideways, and brings its past into the future — in a thoroughly engaging new way. As fresh and vibrant as ever, Pilobolus — that feisty arts organism — puts the ‘Oh!’ in BIG FIVE-OH!, and continues to morph its way thrillingly into audiences’ hearts and minds.
The celebration includes the vintage classic, Untitled, the high-voltage Megawatt, signature shadow works, and a few concepts that have never been seen before!

BURGERS • BEER • RAW BAR
Deciding to open or holding tight has been extremely difficult & nerve wracking. We are super stoked to be so close to opening that we can taste it, but damn are we facing some serious challenges! Opening a new restaurant or any business is far from easy by any sense of the word especially during a pandemic. Tremendous challenges, limited alcohol sales, curfews & now limitations to 30% indoor capacity.
This being said, we have chosen to persevere & PUSH THROUGH with our original full menu, 20 beers on draft, nice selection of delicious vino which will be available ALL DAY with 6 or 7 days in mind. We are shooting for the 14th of January!
Through indoor & outdoor dining as well as take out, we can’t wait to serve you & earn your trust as one of your NEW favorite family-owned & operated mainstays! Cheers to 2021, let’s make it great!!
In conjunction with Sunday Sessions Live (and virtual) music: Food Truck Sundays will bring a new or rotating “staff favorite” cuisine each week to the Beechams Curve offerings.
Gan Shan West, our main culinary provider 6 days a week, is closed on Sundays. Enjoy the convenience, delicious variety and the music – all in one Sunday Funday stop!
In this workshop we will talk about why humans ferment food (hint: flavor, preservation, & health), we will discuss some of the history and culture of different fermentations, we will make a small batch of sauerkraut (you can follow along from home if you have a head of cabbage, salt, knife & cutting board, and a quart sized glass jar!) and we will have a Q&A for troubleshooting home ferments. An instructional PDF will be provided to attendees.

The Usual Suspects -a collective mix of local bluegrass musicians rocking out this Saturday night! Stop by the pub to kick up your heels with a pint. Sláinte!
Hailing from the mountain towns of Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Maryland, The Jakob’s Ferry Stragglers draw freely from Old-Time, Bluegrass, Rockabilly, and Swing music to create their own brand of high energy, Appalachian Bluegrass. Gary Antol (guitar/vocals) and Libby Eddy (fiddle/vocals) founded the band in 2014 with a very simple goal: write good songs, honor the music, and take it to the road. In the time since, Jakob’s Ferry Stragglers has performed in clubs across the country and appeared at festivals including Delfest, Grey Fox, Delaware Valley Bluegrass Festival, and many more.
Come enjoy an evening of live music, food and drinks at the Isis Music Hall. Reservations are highly recommended.
Led by songwriters Isaac Horn (guitar) and Lincoln Mick (mandolin), and with the support of other gifted musicians, The Arcadian Wild confidently inhabits and explores an intersection of genre, blending the traditional with the contemporary in order to create a unique acoustic sound that is simultaneously unified and diverse. With one foot planted firmly in choral and formal vocal music, and the other in progressive folk and bluegrass, the band offers up songs of invitation: calls to come and see, to find refuge and rest, or to journey and wonder. In May 2019, The Arcadian Wild released their sophomore record, “Finch in the Pantry” (May 2019), which debuted at #9 on the Billboard bluegrass charts.
In conjunction with Sunday Sessions Live (and virtual) music: Food Truck Sundays will bring a new or rotating “staff favorite” cuisine each week to the Beechams Curve offerings.
Gan Shan West, our main culinary provider 6 days a week, is closed on Sundays. Enjoy the convenience, delicious variety and the music – all in one Sunday Funday stop!
