Blackfriars Theatre's second show of its 70th Anniversary Season comes from Dominique Morisseau, one of the top ten produced playwrights of the past two years. Winner of the Edward M. Kennedy Prize for Drama (inspired by American history), Detroit '67 is the second installment of the playwright's acclaimed series, The Detroit Project (which also includes the plays Paradise Blue and Skeleton Crew). In 1967 Detroit, Motown music is getting the party started, and Chelle and her brother Lank are making ends meet by turning their basement into an after-hours joint. But when a mysterious woman finds her way into their lives, the siblings clash over much more than the family business. As their pent-up feelings erupt, so does their city, and they find themselves caught in the middle of the '67 riots. Ms. Morisseau is also an Obie Award-winning playwright and the Tony nominated book writer of the current Broadway smash, Ain't Too Proud, The Life and Times of The Temptations.
