The Baristas is a coffee shop comedy, with room for cream. Dierdre, Sam, Madison, Gary and Ben are the friendly faces who pour your decaf, pull your espresso shots and put up with all your problems. Tip them well; they’ve earned it.
Music: “All the Same” by Musket. The Baristas is filmed at the Affogato cafe in Pittsburgh.
The Baristas: Now Starring Elvis!
If you’re a hockey fan, you’ve probably heard Pittsburgh Penguins announcer Mike Lange announce “Ladies and gentlemen, Elvis has left the building!” after a Pens win.
And you may also have noticed someone dressed as Elvis refusing to leave the building… er, the old Mellon Arena… and becoming a cult celebrity among the Pittsburgh Penguin faithful.
It turns out “Elvis” in this case is actually actor Will McMahon… who also happens to star as Ben on The Baristas!
Here’s video from Elvis’s triumphant return at the 2011 Winter Classic, when the Pittsburgh Penguins hosted the Washington Capitals:
Look for Elvis… er, Will… as “Ben” when The Baristas launches on January 31st!
