Lydia (Aja Naomi King) and Henry (Jason Butler Harner)’s dinner guests (Madeline Brewer and William Jackson Harper) are about to arrive when Henry’s spontaneous marriage proposal threatens to burn the evening to a crisp. Wine bottles and years of unspoken tensions are uncorked, and before the evening is through, Lydia must confront her long-held fears and feelings if she’s going to commit to a future with Henry.

Directed by Whitney White, Stacy Osei-Kuffour’s world premiere comedy marches into the muddy intersection of romantic entanglement, identity, pride, and survival.

Great overall performance from the characters. I do not relate to this particular story nor it would be one that I'd normally be drawn to. This play points out the many layers to intimate relationships, cultural identity, and economic statuses in modern society. It has profanity but it is not so excessive not to lose the storyline.

The lies they tell themselves

Though not written fir this moment in time, it sure sits well in it. At times it was a bit in the nose, jumped to quickly into high emotions, I didn’t believe.

At times it pulled me in and then at other times, I was saying aloud, I don’t believe this at all? And almost stopped it.

It has something to say, I think it needs more refining and possibly adding more scenes or dialogue to help keep me in the story. It had these jump ahead moments where it felt like the writer didn’t know how to live the storyline at least a handful of times and again that’s where i was pulled completely out of the story.

Not sure if I’d pay to see it in stage, maybe.

But as apart of my membership, it was nit a wasted of 2 hours. I’d give it a solid C+

It’s good— needs a bit more work.

The beginning was not so good it took a while to pick up. I continued listening because I like to see things through. The end was worth listening thru I suppose , I like the way things wrapped up. A little mind blowing.

It’s.. definitely different

I needed this reminder that I'm not alone in my struggles. Every once in a while a story comes along that shines light on a life lesson.

oh my God!

I listened to this on a whim and found it surprisingly good. An excellent and engaging listen performed to perfection. Highly recommended.

Brilliant Performance

Production and acting are are awesome. Writing and story are full and interesting. I appreciate the depiction of the interracial couples and their struggles within. The characters are more than that too - they’re full human beings. I actually would have appreciated more of that. There’s something a little drab about the story as it progresses. But it doesn’t kill it. Definitely worth a listen.

Full look into a topical subject

To be fair, I didn’t finish listening and it may have gotten much better but it was kind of cringe worthy and negative throughout and after reading a few other reviews where they stopped reading, I ended up following suit.

Cringe Worthy

l listened to this on a wim and l liked it. Thought provoking stotyline... realistic characters ...great narration. Aja Naomi King as Lydia was a real treat. l haven't seen or heard anything from her since "How to get away with murder" ended.

Liked it. 👍🏾
