SWAN Day Pittsburgh
Theatre artists Tressa and Don DiGiulio of SWAN Day Pittsburgh were inspired this year by the Maya Angelou quote: “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” They are asking actors, musicians, dancers and visual artists to create new works based on stories  they have never told before.  They will organize an evening of these new works for SWAN Day 2014. They are also doing a SWAN Day Pittsburgh Jr. event for girls in the afternoon.
