In case you didn't notice, there's an article in today's (2/16/12) Pittsburgh Post-Gazette announcing their 2012-2013 season.
Among the shows is the musical 1776 about the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
Artistic Director Ted Pappas notes that one of the "challenges" to doing 1776 is "finding housing for all the out-of-town performers."
I think I have a suggestion to solve this "challenge."
Why not cast some of the highly talented local Equity actorsd already in Pittsburgh? There are hundreds of them! And they already live here! No need to house them!
Maybe if the Public did this, more of the local professional theatres would follow suit and hire some of the amazing talent Pittsburgh has to offer?
Just a thought...
Amen! Certainly there should be room for our incredibally talented Pittsburgh actors! (I'd love to see you in it!)
