SKELETON CREW Opens at Chester Theatre Company
Named "One of 6 Plays That Reckon With an Anxious America" by The New York Times, this gripping work tells the story of four auto workers barely scraping by in a Detroit auto parts factory in 2008. Morisseau was inspired to pen Skeleton Crew by an encounter she had with a woman in her home city.
In the spirit of August Wilson's Pittsburgh Cycle, Skeleton Crew is the third installment of Morisseau's Detroit Trilogy. Chester Theatre Company is proud to present the New England Premiere of this important work by a playwright who is shining a bright light on critical issues our country is grappling with today.
Heartfelt thanks go out to season sponsors Richard and Carol Seltzer and to production sponsors Karen and Charles Schader for their generous support.
Performances of Skeleton Crew by Dominique Morisseau start July 13 and run through July 23!
Tickets for all performances are on sale at www.chestertheatre.org.
Information on dates, times, and post-performance talks and events can be found on the website.
