Prime Stage Theatre Presents OUR TOWN, 10/17 - 10/25

Our Town will feature KDKA's own John Burnett as Dr. Gibbs and local talent, Gregory Caridi, in the prized role of the Stage Manager. The show is directed by Mark A. Calla, who also directed Prime Stage's highly acclaimed production of The Hound of the Baskervilles in 2008. Mr. Calla describes Our Town as, "A piece centered on the essential sameness of humanity and the cyclical nature of history."

Our Town performs October 17 & 18 and October 23, 24 & 25. Performances are Friday & Saturday at 8:00 p.m., and Sunday at 2:30 p.m. Our Town will perform at The New Hazlett Theater on the North Side of Pittsburgh (6 Allegheny Square East), right across the river from Downtown Pittsburgh's Cultural District.

Prime Stage Founder and Artistic Director, Wayne Brinda comments on Our Town: "A beautiful story of ideas that are needed for today. We have the opportunity to bring this timely story to life. It's timely for today because people, and especially teens, need to connect to simpler and more valuable things in their worlds like happiness, love, life, and each other."
