SKELETON CREW
By Dominique Morisseau
Directed by William (Bill) Earl Ray
September 2, 2018 – September 30, 2018
Morrison Stage

It's 2008, and one of the last auto plants in Detroit is dying on the vine. The factory workers that remain are living paycheck-to-paycheck but amidst the backbreaking work and brutally long shifts, they have somehow shaped themselves into a makeshift family. Faye, a factory lifer, is the glue that holds everything together. But with less than six months before she can retire with a full pension, Faye learns that management has a plan that could threaten her whole existence, leaving her torn between loyalty to her coworkers or her own survival. Heartbreakingly tense with moments of ethereal beauty, Skeleton Crew reveals the struggle to stay relevant in a society that constantly changes.

  • Awards for Dominique Morisseau: 2016 OBIE Award (for Skeleton Crew)
  • "A deeply moral and deeply American play, with a loving compassion for those trapped in a system that makes sins, spiritual or societal, and self-betrayal almost inevitable." -Ben Brantley, The New York Times
  • "A deep vulnerable blend of frustration, conversation, and denial." -Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune
