Arts Festival Pick: Take Me Out


I have been waiting for the Arts Festival to kick off because there are some great things happening at the festival this year.  Pittsburgh based theater group and friend of Iheart PGH, Barebones Productions  is bringing what is sure to be an interesting theater presentation to the festival – Take Me Out.  The play Take Me Out is the story of a baseball player who announces he is gay.  Barebones has brought some other great plays to town in the past few years – (click here to see some past blog posts about Barebones Productions).  I have had the opportunity to talk with Barebones founder and I know they have recruited some top notch actors for this performance.  I think this play will be a really interesting look at another side of sports that isn’t often seen.
