Photo Flash: First Look at Point Park University's CHESS
Point Park University's Conservatory Theatre Company presents Chess Feb. 21 - Mar. 3 in the Rockwell Theatre at the Pittsburgh Playhouse, directed by Scott Wise.
In the midst of the Cold War, Freddie Trumper of the United States and Anatoly Sergievsky of the Soviet Union, face off in a world championship chess tournament. The two men, with the reputation of their countries at stake, prove weak in the face of love and loyalty. Released first as a concept album in 1984, Chess has a critically acclaimed score by ABBA's Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Anderson, and reached Billboard Top 10 Charts around the world, spawning decades of new productions, concerts, and recordings.
