The Popcorn Hat Players Present…

December 31, 2025 at 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM

Doors to the Theatre will open at 10:30 AM / 1:30 PM

Join the Popcorn Hat Players for our 32nd Annual New Year’s Eve Party for Children, where we count down to NOON or TWO instead of midnight! 

Featuring the hit summer 2025 show, The Ugly Duckling.

This year, our party is in the Select Medical Mainstage at Gamut Theatre in downtown Harrisburg. Because we are back in our home theatre, we are gussying up! Make sure to dress in your fanciest, snazziest attire for this one-of-a-kind party! Oh, and you may even get to walk the red carpet!

This show is appropriate for all ages - check our new show ratings system for more details.
