The Metro: Local theater ensemble has a new location on Detroit’s westside
From design to fashion, all art can act as a vehicle for larger themes impacting society. Some art makes you laugh and puts you in whimsical mood, while some are built on justice.
Local experimental theater A Host of People prides itself in being a collective that brings justice to the forefront, making sure all people see themselves on stage. The theater company explores a range of topics in their productions, including how American politics intersect with personal lives.
Recently, A Host of People got a permanent location on Detroit’s West Side, further cementing its mission in a city that has no issue fighting back against injustice.
Sherrine Azab is the co-director of A Host of People. She spoke with The Metro’s Tia Graham about the move and using theater to speak justice to power.
