I kicked of my vacation with a trip to Portland Playhouse to see their latest production.
It’s 1940s gentrifying Detroit, and will the Paradise Club survive? Netta McKenzie, Mikell Sapp, Lester Purry, and Cycerli Ash put us through the paces of this engaging show. It required a few of the actors to act like they were playing instruments in parts, and they did a good job with that tricky task.
I also enjoyed the set design. There’s a hidden room that appears later on.
