Milwaukee Premiere!
SKELETON CREW
by Dominique Morisseau
March 19 – April 4, 2027
Broadway Theatre Center | Studio Theatre
Directed by Dimonte Henning
Featuring James Carrington*, Marques Causey*, Tina Renee Nixon, and Nya Udengwu
Designed and Created by Kellen "Klassik" Abston, Em Allen, KaiLee Evans, Alexis Favia, Carrie Johns*, Ellie Rabinowitz***, Carlos Vergara, and more to be announced
One of Detroit’s last auto stamping plants stands on shaky ground, and a close-knit crew of four factory workers must face a future without the steadiest employment they’ve ever known. Milwaukee’s own Dimonte Henning—Director of MCT smash hits THE MOUNTAINTOP and CLYDE’S—brings to life this poetic, powerful, and profoundly American play described by The Financial Times as “not so much state-of-the-nation as state-of-the-world.”
Run time: approximately 2 hours 15 minutes, including intermission
“Squarely in the tradition of Arthur Miller…a deeply moral and deeply American play.” —The New York Times
“…a strong, formidable work…theatergoers won’t want to miss.”
—Huffington Post
“…even more pertinent now than when it landed in a stellar Off-Broadway production in 2016. The play was terrific then. It’s essential now.” —Deadline
Single Tickets will go on sale August 3, 2026.
