Doings at the New Hazlett Theater

The New Hazlett Theater, located in West Commons Park, just blocks from The Priory, has a bevy of new and interesting events coming up. Today from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. is Paths to the Park Performance - A Chalk Shoes Project. This event is free and takes place at Lake Elizabeth in nearby West Park.


Also upcoming (June 4-28) is a new performance of Lanford Wilson's classic 1987 play "Burn This!" featuring Pittsburgh native David Conrad, in a role originated by John Malkovich. Conrad is also a star of CBS Television's "The Ghost Whisperer." Goldstar.com describes "Burn This" thusly: "Set in a loft on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, Lanford Wilson's electrifying play shows the tension that erupts when people from very different worlds collide. Burn This is a penetrating exposition of four violently opposing characters who are scrambling to regain control over their lives. "
