Mythburgh at First Night at 12 Peers Theater

Mythburgh is coming downtown to ring in the New Year! In a co-production with Pittsburgh Playwrights Theatre Company for Pittsburgh's First Night festivities, 12 Peers will be remounting some of the Mythburgh plays that have made 2017 so memorable.

About Mythburgh:

Mythburgh finds myth and inspiration in the creepy, epic, weird, and truly Pittsburgh stories, told by Pittsburghers and adapted by local playwrights into short plays and digital content. Featuring a recurring cast of characters and a site-specific location, Mythburgh will push the limits of live theatre and engage audiences online and in person.
