Mystic Pizza

Mystic Pizza at Fox Theatre - Detroit

Three friends. One pizza shop. A whole lot of questions about love and the future. Mystic Pizza takes the 1988 film's story of Kat, Daisy and Jojo and turns it into a stage musical filled with recognizable pop songs. If you've ever leaned on your closest friends while trying to figure out your next move, there's something immediately familiar about their journey. The romance matters, but so does the bond between the women trying to find their own paths.

What happens when the life everyone expects you to lead feels nothing like the one you need? Mystic Pizza follows Kat, Daisy and Jojo—three friends working at a small-town Connecticut pizza joint—as each wrestles with what it means to choose yourself when love, loyalty and doubt pull in different directions. Friday, January 22, 2027, at 7:30 PM, the Fox Theatre in Detroit presents Sandy Rustin's stage musical based on the beloved 1988 film, this time built around live performers who bring these conflicts into sharp focus every night.

The Fox Theatre in Detroit hosts the musical Friday, January 22 at 7:30 PM. Familiar songs such as Manic Monday, Hold On and Hit Me With Your Best Shot give the evening a playful musical connection, while Sandy Rustin's book and Jennifer Werner's direction and choreography shape the stage adaptation. Bring a friend who loves the movie or someone who knows the songs by heart. Look into tickets and turn Friday night into a celebration of friendship, big decisions and irresistible pop nostalgia.
