Jitney

Set in 1977, Jitney tells the story of a group of men in Pittsburgh’s Hill District who drive unlicensed “gypsy” cabs that for years have served as a vital means of transportation for the working class in Pittsburgh and other urban centers. Performances through April 24, 2011. Ensemble Theatre.

Christopher Cross was far and away the biggest new star of 1980, virtually defining adult contemporary radio. April 1, 2011, 8:30 p.m. Dosey Doe Coffee.
