June 2023
This Month is a monthly email newsletter where I share three happenings in and around Detroit. Get involved.
Friday, June 9 at 8pm
@ Detroit Public Theatre, Detroit
Free
Sofa Stories, a project working to imagine a world without youth homelessness, premieres six new monologues co-created by six local LGBTQ+ youth with experience of homelessness and six LGBTQ+ writers.
June 9 through July 2
The Magnolia Ballet, Part 1
@ the Carr Center, Detroit
Tickets starting at $22
Plowshares Theatre Company, Michigan’s oldest professional Black theatre company, presents a play set in rural Georgia about an emotionally distant father, his queer son, and the ghosts of their ancestors living in their walls.
Any Friday or Saturday
Fuck You Fridays and Gigi’s Cabaret
@ Gigi’s, Detroit
$5 to $10 depending on night
Since everyone’s randomly got their panties in a bunch about drag queens these days, there’s no better remedy than taking all those $1 bills you have in your pockets and handing ‘em out to the queens at this 50 year old institution. Friday night is standing and dancing, Saturday is a seated cabaret, and every day at Gigi’s is your birthday.
