"Confederates is a masterpiece." - HOUR DETROIT Tickets available now

"On its own, the play is a brilliant exploration of institutionalized racism, the legacy of slavery, our allegiances to one another, and what it might mean to get free. In an ongoing production staged by the Detroit Public Theatre (through March 16) and directed by Goldie E. Patrick, Confederates is a masterpiece."

SEASON TEN
at
Detroit Public Theatre!
 

DPT’s 10th Season began with James Ijames’ Pulitzer Prize winning, FAT HAM, followed by the joyful, surprising, irreverent, and moving DPT Holiday Cabaret for the 2nd year in a row. CONFEDERATES is kicking off the second half of the season before community performances of Dominique Morisseau’s DETROIT ‘67 tours the area this spring. Season 10 will close with the world premiere of SOFT TARGET by Emily Kaczmarek.  This stunning new work about childhood, guns, and all the wounds we cannot see explores the impact of gun violence on communities, families, and children, opening space for brave, and caring dialogue.
