UnCommon Shakespeare

The PGH Stage Online Magazine: Dinner and a show were on the menu at the Duquesne Club last Thursday night as PICT Classic Theatre hosted its second annual Court of UnCommon Pleas fundraiser. The show did not feature the normal cast of actors, but in their place were executives, lawyers and even former Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett.

“It has proved most successful, and it is really interesting for PICT to see people, unused to reading Shakespeare aloud, tackling the works so successfully,” said PICT’s Artistic and Executive, Director Alan Stanford. “Indeed it is gratifying to hear lawyers and politicians discovering Shakespeare in a whole new light.”
