On November 28th at The Byham Theater, as part of “Pittsburgh’s Homecoming Weekend” celebrating the city’s 250th birthday, there will be a special red-carpet screening of “My Tale of Two Cities”, a film about coming home and the city of Pittsburgh reinventing itself. The city of Pittsburgh stars in this often funny and sometimes moving “comeback story” where “St. Elmo’s Fire” screenwriter (and Steeltown co-founder) Carl Kurlander tosses a football with Franco Harris and his son Dok, goes shopping in the Strip with Teresa Heinz Kerry, has breakfast at Ritter’s diner with Paul O’ Neill, asking them and others how their hometown can once again become “The City of Champions.” Pittsburghers everywhere are invited to come home for this special Thanksgiving weekend event and then join Mr. McFeely and the cast in singing “Won’t You Be My Neighhbor?”. Go to www.mytaleoftwocities.com to see clips from the movie and email homecoming@steeltown.org for information on tickets to the event.
