PICT Focuses on All of the Classics

Pittsburgh Magazine - December 2014 - Pittsburgh, PA: It’s no wonder the Charles Dickens masterpiece “Great Expectations,” adapted by Hugh Leonard, closes out the year at PICT Classic Theatre, running Dec. 4-20. The first season fully selected and helmed by Artistic and Executive Director Alan Stanford leaves audiences with great expectations indeed for the expanding troupe.

I am glad to hear that this artistic director is looking to make some changes and expansions to PICT. Although I have never worked for the company, from what I perceive, they have in the past struggled with both finances and production value. I hope that the new path that the artistic director is trying to lead the company down will allow for continued production quality that will bring in more revenue. Yes - it's also about the art. We must all, as theatre creators, pick good shows and assemble good teams to create that world. However, that's a step that can be taken more freely. Resources cannot become more available if the monetary situation isn't also considered.
