‘Detroit ‘67’: Acts On Stage Captures the Best of Music and the Worst of Times
Acts On Stage is bringing “Detroit ‘67” to Seattle! From her award-winning stage trilogy, Dominique Morissea delivers “Detroit ‘67” as a two-story dramedy that chronicles a family having a house party while the city is on fire. The metaphor sits on the backbeat of a country dancing to the new sound of Motown as it simultaneously finds itself in the dust of one of the most explosive moments in American history: the 1967 Detroit riots. It’s all coming together while falling apart.
Staged for the first time in Seattle, “Detroit ‘67” is produced by Acts On Stage theater and comes under the legendary direction of Isiah Anderson Jr., who is especially eager to dive into this mid-century drama with a touch of romance that features his favorite era of music. This production is as perfect for date night as it is for those looking for a meaningful way to discuss the often polarizing topics of family bonds, identity, politics, sibling rivalry and love that crosses all the lines.
Detroit ‘67 runs Friday, November 14 to Sunday, November 23, including a pay-what-you-can show on Monday, November 17. The production features local talent Kristen Sheri, Franklin Johnson, Janice Spinks, Michael Ling and Isabella Morris.
