JITNEY
Presented by Marcus Center for the Performing Arts at Marcus Center for the Performing Arts
January 26-January 29, 2012
"JITNEY" is set in the Hill District of Pittsburgh 1970's when Black people could not get a taxi to service them in certain neighborhoods. Black men would rent out a space and place a desk and telephone there and people could call for a ride. The focus is what went on inside the "JITNEY" station and the effect it had on their daily Lives.
