Description:

Set in present-day Chicago, Mop and Bucket Blues follows the journey of a dedicated janitor, JJ, who has spent decades cleaning up Chicago schools, literally and figuratively. With the help of a brave new ex-NFL player turned principal, JJ confronts the challenges of a struggling public school system while fighting to create a better future for creative and athletic students. Mop and Bucket Blues is a raw, honest, and emotionally charged play that amplifies the voices of the underserved youth and the silent heroes who fight for them daily. It is a call to awareness, a cry for help, and a tribute to those who dare to care.
