Downtown offers many opportunities to experience to preforming arts. Several venues include Heinz Hall, Benedum Center, O'Reilly Theater, and Byham Theater (all of which are managed by The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust, www.pgharts.org.) Which host productions from groups that include the Pittsburgh CLO and the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. (www.pittsburghclo.org and www.pittsburghsymphony.org, respectively)
Both the Benedum and Heinz Hall have nice interiors, however Heinz is particularly exquisite.
PITTARTS (www.pittarts.pitt.edu) often has highly discounted tickets available (for example $33 student tickets that would normally be $100.75), so I believe it would be advantageous to consult their website before buying tickets from the box office.
Also, the many restaurants are close to Theater Square facilitate a wide variety of atmospheres and price ranges. Many of the restaurants under the downtown section of this Pittsburgh Post Gazette list are with in walking distance of the theaters. www.post-gazette.com/pg/03001/700028-209.stm
