Since 1935, unremarkable buildings in Oakland have been a hub of local theater. Now, the Pittsburgh Playhouse is on its way to a state-of-the-art location Downtown. The Rauh Jewish History Program & Archives will host Curtain Call! Jews and the Pittsburgh Playhouse, a reflective on the numerous Jews who were a part of the Oakland location’s 80-plus years. The event, hosted at the Sen. John Heinz History Center, will feature photos and other behind-the-curtain looks. Longtime actor Nat Elbaum, whose decades-long stage career garnered critical praise, and actress Helen Wayne Rauh, will be two drama veterans featured. -Alex McCann
