City Hall is demanding more than his signature, the Landlord wants him out, the liquor store is closed — and the Church won’t leave him alone. For ex-cop & recent widower Walter “Pops” Washington and his recently paroled son Junior, when the struggle to hold on to one of the last great rent stabilized apartments on Riverside Drive collides with old wounds, sketchy new houseguests, and a final ultimatum, it seems the Old Days are dead and gone — after a lifetime living between Riverside and Crazy.
The play won the 2015 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the 2015 New York Drama Critics' Circle Award for Best Play. Additionally, it received the 2015 Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Play, the 2015 Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding New Off-Broadway Play, and the 2015 Obie Award for Ensemble Performance.
Detroit Repertory Theatre is at 13103 Woodrow Wilson St., Detroit, MI .
