January 2024
This Month is a monthly email newsletter where I share three happenings in and around Detroit. Get involved.
Friday, January 12 - Sunday, March 3
August Wilson’s Joe Turner’s Come and Gone
@ Detroit Repertory Theatre, Detroit
$25 in advance, $30 same day
The Rep takes on another one of August Wilson’s Pittsburgh Cycle plays, this one set in a boarding house in 1911. Don’t wanna spoil too much more, but you should know Angela Bassett got one of her first big gigs acting in the Broadway production of this play in 1988.
Starting Tuesday, January 16 through the winter
Ice skating!
@ Clark Park, Detroit
Unsure on price, but definitely reasonable
Yeah sure we all know about Campus Martius downtown skating but tbh the ice sucks and is all chopped up, so get your feet over to Clark Park where they have a full size hockey rink and open skating on weekdays from 2-5pm and Fridays from 3-9pm.
Saturday, January 20
L’Rain
@ Red Door Gallery, Detroit
$18.54
This multi-instrumentalist and composer is touring her recent and celebrated album I Killed Your Dog, which includes the track “New Year’s UnResolution”. Happy new year to ya and good luck with your own unresolutions in 2024.
