"After such a very successful run last year, we're thrilled to bring the Bodies Revealed exhibit back to Myrtle Beach's Broadway at the Beach," said Katherine Seymour, vice president of communications with Premier Exhibitions, Inc., the company that presents Bodies Revealed. "The response was overwhelmingly positive and this is the first time we've brought Bodies Revealed to the same location twice. We hope that people who didn't have a chance to view the exhibit last time-and those who loved it and want to come back-will come to Myrtle Beach and check it out."

First Report: Broadway at the Beach will play host to this one of a kind of exhibit that is sure to amaze and intrigue your mind and how you think about the human body.  

The exhibition uses 14 full body human specimens and over 200 organs to tell the story of the miraculous systems at work within each of us every second of our existence. Rooted in the historical precedent set by such great anatomists as Vesalius and da Vinci, each full body specimen is dissected to best reveal the function of a complete anatomical system and to show that system’s relationship to the body as a whole.

Bodies Revealed, a new exhibit examining the human body in skeletal and mussel form unveils itself along the Grand Strand May 14.  It's full exposure will be on display at Broadway at the Beach until September 5, 2011. Presale tickets are $10 with an additional $5 option for an audio guide. After the exhibit goes live tickets range in price from $10-$14. You can purchase tickets direct online at TicketWeb.
