"Why do we come together in a theatre to experience live performance? Our 41st season celebrates the broadly diverse ways we feed the spirit of our community through theatre. From a perfect musical comedy in Guys and Dolls to the stirring drama rooted in our living history with Detroit '67 to the family friendly fantasy of The Hobbit, this is a rangy, ambitious season that has a thread of desire that runs through it all. A desire for belonging, desire for riches, desire for love and connection - we come together at the Wells to be moved.”
