Expect More in 2015

PICT expands to seven “classics” in 2015—with two Downtown Series performances kicking off the season in the Cultural District.

Where Will You Sit?

“A Place of Saints and Sinners,” is the theme of this new season, and Artistic & Executive Director, Alan Stanford, carefully selected it to represent PICT’s 2015 lineup. “Each of the plays in this season, including the Downtown Series, questions the nature of saints and sinners and presents us with rich characters who fall in a variety of places on the spectrum.”

The new season will see the return of many audience favorites including Martin Giles, David Walen, James FitzGerald, Karen Baum and some surprise guests as well. Joining them for one production only is Alan Stanford, executive and artistic director.

Introducing the Downtown Series

The Downtown Series will be staged at Peirce Studio inside the Trust Arts Education Center on Liberty Avenue. Audiences will see a different side of PICT in this intimate studio space that provides PICT with the environment to create tomorrow’s classics out of unique theatrical works.
