This week I visited the Pittsburgh Playwrights Theatre in Downtown Pittsburgh, Peabody High School in East Liberty, Kenny’s Place in the Hill District, The New Amsterdam in Lawrenceville, Ava Lounge in East Liberty and the Red Onion in the Hill District.

My first stop was at the Pittsburgh Playwrights Theatre in Downtown Pittsburgh where August Wilson’s play “Jitney” was presented featuring Sala Udin and an all-star cast. If you missed this play, you have to check it out. It is playing until May 30.

More ladies representin’ at First Friday’s in East Liberty at Ava Lounge.

My next stop was at Kenny’s Place in the Hill District. DJ X-Man was on the 1’s and 2’s during karaoke night. The place was packed and it was a great time for everyone.

My next stop was at the New Amsterdam in Lawrenceville where DJ Selecta was on the 1’s and 2’s giving the crowd a night of hip-hop flavor on the dance floor. This spot is new on the scene, so you must come and check it out.

My next stop was Ava Lounge in East Liberty where Jason held his monthly event called First Fridays featuring DJ Phinesse and others on the wheels of steel. The professional business crowd always comes out to represent at this event and it is off the chain.

My next destination was Peabody High School in East Liberty where the Miss Ebony and Princess Pageant was held for all of the positive young ladies from the city of Pittsburgh. Congratulations to everyone who entered the show.

My final destination was at the Red Onion in the Hill District where DJ Sly Jock was on the 1’s and 2’s. You can check him out every week at the Red Onion starting at 9 p.m.
