Paradise Blue
Fully immersive production of Dominique Morisseau's modern classic
Detroit, 1949. Welcome to Paradise, a jazz club that’s seen better days. Blue, the club’s trumpet-playing owner is ready to leave this town and his family demons behind. But his house band and his best girl have dreams of their own, so when hardboiled widow Silver enters the picture looking for some business and some pleasure, love, lust, and legacy collide in the fight for Paradise. Studio Theatre transforms the Victor Shargai Theatre into a jazz club in this 360-degree immersive performance. Join us before the show to sip a period-accurate cocktail at the Paradise bar and enjoy a live jazz performance, then have a seat at your table and be captivated by Dominique Morisseau’s music-filled drama about resilience, self-preservation, and community .
