In this episode, we’re talking with Bethlehem resident Matthew, a writer and aspiring scientist. We talk about impactful teachers, Musikfest, and his creative and uniquely written commencement speech he gave when he graduated from Freedom High School not too long ago.
Matt shares his love of local improv and comedy at SteelStacks and talks about his newest project, The Horizon a Murder Mystery Musical in which he co-created and directed with a group of friends.
Check out this episode to learn more about The Horizon, when it’s planning to premiere, and to learn more about Matthew’s take on many experiences here in the Lehigh Valley!

Take it from a Local, a Lehigh Valley with Love Podcast, is hosted by Allison Pittenger, a 20-year-old college junior.
“A Bethlehem native, I grew up going to Musikfest every summer, seeing shows at the State Theatre, and experiencing all that the Lehigh Valley has to offer. I’m a current student at East Stroudsburg University studying Video & Television production. I love theme parks, musical theatre, traveling, and of course creating content for people to enjoy. I began as an intern with Lehigh Valley with Love in early 2020 and have continued to work with them on various projects, and now this podcast! The goal of Take It From a Local is to hear from Lehigh Valley residents of past and present and to get their views and opinions on the many things to experience in the area. You can find me and follow my journey through life over on my Instagram @alli.pitt. I hope you enjoy the podcast!”
