Motown music is getting the party started, and Chelle and her brother Lank are making ends meet by turning their basement into an after-hours joint. But when a mysterious woman finds her way into their lives, the siblings clash over more much more than the family business. As their pent-up feelings erupt, so does their city, and they find themselves caught in the middle of the '67 riots.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDetroit '67\u003c\/i\u003e is presented in association with Classical Theatre of Harlem and the National Black Theatre.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eDetroit '67 \u003c\/i\u003ewas awarded the 2014 Edward M.
