Mission/Vision/Goals
Pittsburgh Irish and Classical Theatre was founded in 1996 to diversify the region's theatrical offerings by providing audiences high-quality, text-driven, affordable productions of classical theatre and the works of classical and contemporary Irish playwrights. PICT's education component offers special student matinee performances, in-school programming exploring substantial classical texts, and, most important, opportunities to respond in writing so as to further support the Academic Standards of Pennsylvania. With both our matinee performances and our in-school programming, we provide writing prompts which adhere to the PSSA and SAT requirments. The student writing is assessed by PICT's Education Director and then returned to students and teachers.
