Pittsburgh is experimental theatre

Quantum Theatre's new show is titled When the Rain Stops Falling and it just opened last weekend.

(Contrary to what you might think--it is NOT about Seattle.) 

We've got tickets for this Saturday which to me seems not soon enough.  I cannot wait that long to see this show, given what I've heard about this company (part of it from the Artistic Director Karla Boos).

Written by an Australian playwright named Andrew Bovell, it is being performed in the vacant Iron City Brewery as part of Quantum's initiative to bring theater to different non-theatre spaces, as well as to connect with the community--in this case, Lawrenceville.  They've been doing this kind of thing for twenty years now and from what I hear, they're pretty freaking amazing.
