Detroit '67

Detroit '67 February 10 - March 8, 2015 Southwest Arts Center Written by Dominique Morisseau Directed by Kamilah Forbes It's 1967 in Detroit and Motown music is getting the party started. Chelle and her brother Lank are making ends meet by turning the basement of their late parents house into a cool, after-hours club. But when a mysterious woman finds her way into their lives, the siblings begin to clash over more than the family business. As their pent-up feelings erupt, so does the city around them, and they find themselves caught in the middle of the '67 riots in America's Motor City. “Crackling with humor! Fire up some Motown, get those hips moving and everything will work out fine.” - The New York Times
