Attack Theatre’s 212 Stories - In partnership with MCG Jazz and Lawrenceville United

212 STORIES IS A DANCE EVENT INSPIRED BY THE RICH HISTORY OF THE BUILDING (212 45th Street) that we now call home. A former YMCA and PITTSBURGH Boys Club from the early 1900s — this building becomes both the venue and the impetus for a world-premiere performance that honors the STORIES THAT HAVE ECHOED THROUGH ITS HALLS FOR MORE THAN A CENTURY. Presented in PARTNERSHIP WITH MCG JAZZ THIS PRODUCTION WILL FEATURE ORIGINAL LIVE MUSIC AND JAZZ STANDARDS AS THE SOUNDSCORE FOR THE DECADES. In a space once filled with the energy of young learners, playing and growing; a gym for dancing and dating, and a basement of boxing and bowling; we now learn, move, connect, and create. Through 212 Stories we invite you to experience how the stories of the past and the new ones we are building — through dance and music — can transform a space and bring a community together. Why do we tell stories? To shape culture, to guide, to connect.
