Continuing

“Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” — Temple of Music and Art Cabaret Theater, 330 S. Scott.

“Stage Kiss” — Live Theatre Workshop, 5317 E. Speedway. Playwright Sarah Ruhl takes us into the lives of two actors — once lovers — who are cast opposite each other in a play in which they are required to kiss. A lot. That spells trouble for them. Every laugh is wrung out of this uproarious comedy, thanks to a cast led by Shanna Brock and Stephen Frankenfield. Sabian Trout directs. 7:30-9:30 p.m. Jan. 24-26, 31 and Feb. 1; 3-5 p.m. Jan. 27.

“Two Trains Running” — Temple of Music and Art, 330 S. Scott Ave. August Wilson’s play is part of his 10-play Pittsburgh Cycle — he wrote a play about the African-American experience in each decade of the 20th century. “Two Trains Running” takes place in the ’60s, when the Black Power movement was on the rise and big changes are rumbling through the country. It is set in a cafe that’s a neighborhood gathering place and is destined for destruction thanks to urban renewal. Lou Bellamy directs; the cast is made up of James Craven, Erika LaVonn, Cedric Mays, Lester Purry, Alan Bomar Jones, Dennis W. Spears and Ahanti Young. 7:30-10 p.m. Jan. 24 (preview), 26, 29-31 and Feb. 1; 7-9 p.m. Jan. 27; 2-4 p.m. Jan. 27 and 30. Through Feb. 9. $25-$66. 622-2823.

“The Brave Knight, Sir Lancelot” — Live Theatre Workshop, 5317 E. Speedway. Another LTW original play for the whole family. Richard Gremel penned this one about Lancelot’s quest to find action, adventure, dragons and damsels in distress. Why? Because he wants to be a knight, of course. 12:30-1:30 p.m. Sundays through March 24. $10. 327-4242. livetheatreworkshop.org.
