Detroit - play by Lisa D'Amour presented by Performance Jam April24- May3

Overview

Dark comedy about inviting new neighbors over for a backyard barbecue which spirals into an unexpected entanglement and examination.

Performance Jam, who brought you the sold-out production of THE SEAGULL in 2024 , are back at Pullman Yards with another "not to be missed" production of DETROIT - a dark comedy play by Lisa D'Amour / Pulitzer Prize Finalist and 2013 Obie Winner of Best New American Play.

Set in a suburban backyard, Mary and Ben invite new neighbors Kenny and Sharon for a barbecue. Worried about their Home Depot/TJ Maxx purchases and future, they learn that the souls' deepest need is to rub shoulders with the unexpected, come what may.

DETROIT reflects our moment of fractured individuation, frightened times , generative automation, a precipice between generations, disillusionment with systems and ways of American idealism. It brings to the surface with humor, pain and great compassion the contradictions of human nature.

Features: Vivian Bang, Love Floyd, Eric Whitten, Dan Cutts & Craig Anton with Movement Consulting by Erin O'Connor

Directed by Fiona Campbell & Vivian Bang

Tech (Sound & Light) Design by Mason C Brown

Props & Set Design by Zoe Kruse

Hosted by Pullman Yards - Building #5, 225 Roger St. ATL

APRIL 24- May 3.

FRI & SAT Doors Open 7pm / Show at 8pm

SUN Doors Open 2pm / Show at 3pm
