Monroe
Monroe, Michigan sits between Toledo and Detroit on Lake Erie's western shore, and its live-music calendar leans toward presented, ticketed shows rather than bar-circuit originals. The two main rooms reflect that character well. The La-Z-Boy Center's Meyer Theater, a 550-seat performing arts venue on the Monroe County Community College campus, anchors the city's concert life. Each academic year MCCC runs its Entertainment and Events Series, covering a broad range of musical and theatrical performances and visiting artists. The booking mix favors tribute acts and orchestral programming: recent seasons have included a Motown All-Stars show featuring members of The Miracles and The Temptations, and the annual Black History Month Blues Concert. The venue also draws acts ranging from the Toledo Symphony to jazz performers. Downtown, the River Raisin Centre for the Arts occupies the historic Art Deco Monroe Theatre, built in 1938. It presents a year-round season featuring dance, live music, and musical theatre for the Monroe County region. Resident companies include the River Raisin Ballet and the River Raisin Chorale. Beyond these two rooms, the city runs a Summer Concert Series at St. Mary's Park and live music on fourth Fridays in the downtown Social District.
