Saint Vincent summer theater gala eases the heat with refreshing comedy

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: As summer theater goes, Saint Vincent College has a history that is almost as interesting as the plays it produces.
The venture first got off the ground in 1969, when the Rev. Tom Devereux — as the director — and a group of students mounted six plays in six weeks, with everyone pitching in on everything: rehearsing, performing, building sets, making costumes, running lights, manning the box office and cleaning the theater lobby and rest rooms. At the end of that summer, each person involved earned $85 for six weeks of work.
