I had the pleasure of attending this wonderfully entertaining and hilarious stage play on both Tuesday, February 20, 2018 and Wednesday, February 21, 2018 at the West Las Vegas Library Theatre. First of all the theater was a beautiful location to present this show. Every seat in the house was a good seat and it allowed for the stage to be set up to present the musical in a very professional fashion.
I had heard about the stage play, but clearly did not really know what to expect. From the start it captured my attention with great visual appeal, humor and amazing vocals from the array of performers. Sitting in the audience, it felt like witnessing your family and friends having an opinion on how your world is working, as thoughts were expressed and a strong faith in God shared, to the craziness of ones friends being ready and willing to throw down in your honor. Mind you, this is all done with humor and song.

The play touch on the struggles of keeping a marriage together, the love and support of family and friends…sharing time in church through God’s word and song. Okay, I’m a preachers daughter but the church scenes were so funny, with tasteful humor…LOL
As Chardonnay’s first marriage comes to an end, did she find new love, a perfect love? Celebrating with family and friends along with a long time admirer…the planning begins for a dream wedding. Although, the play is so funny, it takes real life situations that anyone could relate to.
The talents of the cast was phenomenal…from the acting to the singing, Ms Michelle put together a stellar cast. I personally and professionally knew Avana Christie, Promise Marks and EC Adams and knew their talents as singers, but I was blow away by their acting ability. Let me tell you Momma Humpking and Sistah Beautee were a pair and the humorous relationship between the two, almost seemed so real that I could picture it in my mind…imagining the conversations that could take place between these characters.
Ooops, who came to crash the wedding? Well, what would you think as you look at this picture…I highly recommend that you come out to the Las Vegas Black Film Festival on April 27, 2017 and attend the movie premiere for the movie with the same title…Yes, Ms Michelle has turned this global stage play into a movie. And she says that there is much more that we will experience with these very same characters and actors in the movie.
I thoroughly enjoyed this great stage play, from the storyline to the acting and music. Bravo Ms Michelle and cast!
Just a few of the cast after the final night…
