The acclaimed jazz opera “Forgotten” tells the powerful story of Depression-era workers who organized unions and built a strong labor movement. "Forgotten" premiered in Detroit in 2004 to critical acclaim, and now the nonprofit Michigan Labor History Society is seeking funds for a revival production in 2025, the 90th anniversary of the founding of the UAW. With a cast of 22 actors, singers, and musicians, “Forgotten” will tell a new generation the inspiring story of how their parents and grandparents struggled to win many of the things we enjoy today.
