THE PLOT
An adaptation of the Dickensian holiday classic, A New Pittsburgh Christmas Carol explores the rapidly changing landscape of our gentrifying city. Uberneezer Scroober is the latest in a long line of bloodsucking corporate goons looking to profit off the backs of Pittsburghers, but first he needs to learn some lessons from the city's past and triumph over the infighting between yinzers who long to Keep Pittsburgh Sh#%@y and people who use avocado toast as currency.

The Post-Gazette comments section come to life live on stage, A New Pittsburgh Christmas Carol is sure to have you either rolling in the aisles or using them to storm out of the theater. Will anyone open a craft brewery? Will late stage capitalism be the end of Tiny Tim? Did anyone ever find that dumpster floating down Route 51 or is it now off on some sort of Homeward Bound-esque adventure with a capricious recycling bin trying to make its way back to Pittsburgh? WHO KNOWS! You will not find out the answers to these questions and more at A New Pittsburgh Christmas Carol!

Please Note: This play contains adult themes and strong language. It's not for kids!
