Square Signature Center , Hell's Kitchen
In 1949,
Detroit’s Black Bottom neighborhood is gentrifying. Blue, a troubled trumpeter
and the owner of Paradise Club, is torn between remaining in Black Bottom with
his loyal lover Pumpkin and leaving behind a traumatic past. But when the
arrival of a mysterious woman stirs up tensions, the fate of Paradise Club
hangs in the balance. Paradise Blue is the first production of Obie Award-winning
playwright Dominique Morisseau’s Signature Residency. Directed by Tony
Award-winner Ruben Santiago-Hudson (The Piano Lesson, Jitney), it is a
thrilling and timely look at the changes a community endures to find its
resilience.
