Yinz got questions?
-
Seating is General Admission, so don’t dilly-dally. Last time, Cousin Donnie showed up late, sat in someone's lap, and called it "Yinzer-style seating."
-
Plenty of parking in nearby garages ‘n lots—no need to circle the block 47 times like yer Pap tryin’ to find a spot on Carson.
-
Doors open 30 minutes before showtime, so don’t be standin’ outside with a Sheetz coffee tryin’ to act all casual n'at.
-
The show runs about 2 hours—unless Uncle Tony from McKees Rocks jumps on stage thinkin' it's open mic night at the Moose Lodge. Then we're here all night.
-
Dress however yinz like—we ain't fancy, but you might get an extra Smiley Cookie if you show up in black 'n gold.
-
And no outside snacks—Don't be sneakin' in a fish sandwich from Big Jim's and stinkin' up the joint. We got Clark Bars, Turner's Tea, and a Pittsburgh cookie table that'll have your Nonna stuffin' her purse before intermission.
See yinz at the show, n'at!

We’ve brought together over 50 local artists—actors, directors, playwrights, and designers—to bring these stories to life. But what most people don’t realize is just how expensive it is to put on a festival like this.
Ticket sales will never cover the cost of production.
Without your help, we will be in the RED.
Thanks to our fiscal sponsorship through Fractured Atlas, your donation is fully tax-deductible. We welcome any amount you can give—no gift is too small. Every dollar directly supports paying our artists, covering production costs, and creating a space for creativity, collaboration, and community to thrive.
Your support means the world to us and makes this festival possible.
👉 Every Bit Helps! Donate here.
Thank you for believing in what we’re building. From our hearts to yours—thank you.
THE ALL THINGS PITTSBURGH PLAY FESTIVAL is a sponsored project of Fractured Atlas, a non-profit arts service organization. Contributions for the charitable purposes of THE ALL THIINGS PITTSBURGH PLAY FESTIVAL must be made payable to “Fractured Atlas” only and are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.
ensemble actors theater is a professional resident theater company that serves as an incubator for student actors to develop their craft while working alongside Actors' Equity Association (AEA) members and seasoned professionals.
We believe live theater is a vital force in the life of a community—a mirror held up to reflect who we are, who we’ve been, and who we hope to become. Through visceral storytelling and shared experience, it sparks dialogue, nurtures empathy, and invites audiences to see the world through one another’s eyes. By honoring the diverse voices of our region, ensemble actors theater builds connection, fosters equity, and celebrates the rich cultural fabric of the communities we serve.
Sure, those might sound like lofty goals and big fancy words—but at the heart of it, storytelling has always been one of the most powerful ways to bring people together. Whether it’s a play that shines a light on hard truths ripped from the headlines, or one that has us laughing 'til our cheeks hurt, live theater connects us. It reminds us what it means to be human—together.
