Mythburgh at First Night

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.

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.
