TheatreWorks Silicon Valley continues its 2017/2018 Season with the regional premiere of Skeleton Crew in a co-production with Marin Theatre Company, running March 7 - April 1, 2018.

A makeshift family of auto plant workers navigate the possibility of foreclosure in this funny, tough, and tender American drama set in 2008 during the Great Recession. Rising star playwright Dominique Morisseau (Ain't Too Proud, Sunset Baby, Detroit '67) creates a world in which ambitious dreams and corporate deception interweave, pushing friendships to the limit.

Skeleton Crew will be directed by guest director Jade King Carroll (Associate Director for Broadway revivals of A Streetcar Named Desire and The Gin Game).
