South Side Stories

November 10 – December 16, 2012 (Hamburg)
January 8-13, 2013 (Extended Run)
A world premiere by Tami Dixon
Directed by Matt M. Morrow

This vibrant one-woman show portrays the dynamism of a neighborhood. Embedded in the concrete of South Side’s city steps are testimonials of teenage mischief, steel mill toil, and townie haunts. This is a neighborhood where parking chairs and bar stools mark territory, where “paradise” is just one turn off of 26th Street. So we ask, “Are yinz ready for some stories ’bout the ‘burgh?”
