Winners and finalists of Pittsburgh Public Theater’s Annual Shakespeare Monologue & Scene Contest will give life to the Bard’s most beautiful poetry and iconic characters on the outdoor stage on Flagstaff Hill in Schenley Park. The event will be hosted by former Hope Academy teaching artist and Shakespeare coach, Parag S. Gohel, who is Pittsburgh Public Theater’s newly named Director of Education and Engagement.
