Arlene Weiner Appreciated the shout-out to Mark S. last night at the August Wilson Center's superb production of Gem of the Ocean. Looking forward to his restaging of Two Trains Running on the same set Thursday.

Pittsburgh Playwrights Theatre Company Two married couples become barricaded in a basement during a violent uprising of zombies, Pittsburgh's favorite villains (or heroes to some). As supplies run low and hopes dwindle, it is revealed that two of the spouses are infected and getting...hungry. Faced with the true meaning of commitment, husbands and wives mus...t ask of each other: When does love die?

"Delightful....The Revenants opens with a mini-masterpiece of unnerving terror....a tightly paced story. The end isn't pretty. But it is as perverse a happily-ever-after as you could possibly want from a tale of love among ghouls." Windy City Times - Catey Sullivan

I was at Sunday May 17th performance. I was totally wowed. I'm spreading the good word not only about Seven Guitars but the PPTC as well. I came as friend and neighbor of Wali Jamal and left a fan of PPTC. I was also pleasantly surprised to find a fellow Homestead native Montae Russell in this show. Bravo to all involved. Seven Guitars was everything one could hope to want and expect from the theater.

Pittsburgh Playwrights Theatre Company Seven Guitars focuses on the 1948 funeral of one of the seven main characters, showing events leading to the funeral in flashbacks. True to its mission to present all ten plays in Pulitzer Prize winner Wilson’s “Pittsburgh Cycle,” PPTCO offers its sixth play in the series—a brilliantly constructed examination of the Af...rican-American male's fight for his own humanity in the face of personal and societal ills. Last season's production of August Wilson's Two Trains Running at PPTCO was ranked #3 in Post-Gazette theater critic Christopher Rawson's “Best Theatre Evenings of 2008”.

The play will feature:
Montae Russell (paramedic Dwight Zadro on E.R., Sterling Johnson in Radio Golf at Pgh. Public Theater, Caesar in Gem of the Ocean at Pgh. Public Theater, Lance in The Players Club, Mister in King Hedley II on Broadway)

Jonathan Berry (Fences, Joe Turner's Come and Gone, Two Trains Running at PPTCO)

Terri Bridget (Ma Rainey in Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, Joe Turner's Come and Gone at PPTCO)

Wali Jamal (Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, Joe Turner's Come and Gone, The Piano Lesson, Two Trains Running at PPTCO)

Alan Bomar Jones (The Piano Lesson at PPTCO)

Montae went to school with my brother Craig and I went to school with his sister Anita. This is such a small world! I'm going to have to buy 2 tickets and pay someone to take my Mom. Thanks Montae .... Mark, I'm still in awe....
