The State Theatre Blog

This is a blog dedicated to keeping you updated on all that is The State Theatre of downtown State College, PA. On this blog you will find info on the concerts, films, and other special events that are upcoming at The State. This site will be focused on bringing more info on the events than you can normally find at The State's regular homepage. We will be posting videos, reviews, and more overall info than you can find anywhere else.

We will also be getting our readers involved as well. We will be doing a different poll every week to see how you, the reader, think The State is doing with their programming schedule. Also within the polls we will be asking who and what you would like to see at The State. On top of the polling you will be able to comment on everything that is posted on the blog, which now gives you more input than ever before. We here at The State Theatre Blog are very interested in what you think, so we overwhelmingly encourage you to join in on the blogging fun.

With that being said, enjoy the blog and we cannot wait to hear what you have to say!

Penn State's Whiplash Dance Team coming to The State Friday 4/24


The Whiplash Dance Team was formed on November 18, 2000. Today, the team consists of a group of 18 Penn State undergraduate students who are trained in all styles of dance and specialize in hip-hop. Whiplash is a high energy group that is asked to perform at many college and community events such as Thon, the Penn State homecoming parade and pep-rally, PSU men’s and women’s basketball games, and many other local fundraisers. Each year, Whiplash has hundreds of dance students interested in joining the team. However, after a rigorous audition process, they can only add approximately 5 new members per year.


Their annual spring show highlights the many talents of its members. This year there will be pieces in the following genres: hip-hop, contemporary, jazz, tap and lyrical. There will be three guest performances featured in this year’s show. Please join the Whiplash Dance Team for an evening of art and entertainment


Tickets for April 24th performance of Penn State's Whiplash Dance Team are on sale now and are going for $7 for students and $12 for everyone else. Tickets are available both ONLINE and at The State Theatre Box Office, and we hope to see you there April 24th.
