ABOUT THE EVENT

Dominique Morisseau’s
Paradise Blue
Black community in a fight for its future.
Directed by Lou Bellamy
February 13 through March 9, 2025

Welcome to the Paradise Club, home to a makeshift family of musicians living out their lives in a fast-changing section of Detroit. After a bewitching stranger arrives with ready cash and a secretive agenda, the future of these friendships and the club itself fall into doubt. Morriseau’s noir-inflected musical drama captures people yearning to find their song in a community on the brink.
