THE CHIEF, a one-man show about Pittsburgh Steelers owner Art Rooney, is being retired after several hit seasons of presentation at the Pittsburgh Public Theater.

A commemorative DVD, to be sold by the Pittsburgh Steelers at various venues, is being taped on November 12th at Shadyside Academy, and they are looking for audience members. Audiences will see a full production of the show and be provided with refreshments. Participants will be required to wear clothing appropriate for a night at the theater, be available to stay through the estimated 5 hours of taping, and will act as extras, filling various areas of the theater and recreating reaction shots.

There is no charge, but all audience members must be confirmed to attend. Spaces are limited, and will be filled on a first-come, first-serve basis.

To begin the confirmation process, please send an e-mail with name, phone number, and recent photograph to fourthrivercasting@yahoo.com as soon as possible. Details on time and location will be sent when registration is confirmed.

thanks, steelswine

I’ve read good reviews of the show before, but never did see it. I’m glad to hear your first-hand account that it’s worth going.

My wife and I just received confirmation that we’re able to attend, and I’ll let you know what I find out about the availability of the DVD.
