Working
Director: Daina Michelle Griffith
Music Director: Doug Levine
Working (the 2012 updated version) is based on Studs Terkel’s landmark 1974 oral-history book Working: People Talk About What They Do All Day and How They Feel About What They Do. The original stage adaptation was conceived by Stephen Schwartz, with contributions from a remarkable collection of composers and lyricists. The revised 2012 version includes songs from Lin-Manuel Miranda, James Taylor, Craig Carnelia, Micki Grant, Mary Rodgers, and Susan Birkenhead. This Tony nominated musical weaves together real stories from workers across professions—teachers, steelworkers, waitresses, tech support staff, caregivers, and more. Many stories in the show are relatable to Pittsburgh from mill workers to tech and healthcare workers, and of course waitresses.
