Dontrell, Who Kissed The Sea
Free-form dance movements, surrounding Greek-like chorus responses, and appearances of ancestrial spirits– all often bringing strong hints of long-ago Africa – are part of the oft-watery, dream-like world in The Pear Theatre’s production of “Dontrell, Who Kissed the Sea.”

Aurora Theatre continues its special relationship with the brilliant Dominque Morisseau, with a “Paradise Blue” that joins 1918’s “Detroit ’67:” as incredibly important stories of homage and respect about a part of Black and American history that must not be forgotten.
