 love on Layaway October 17, 2008
Moving contemporary musical, dramatic play about love and relationships. Singing was exemplary. Characters could have used a little more development. Overall a very good production.
I enjoyed this September 23, 2008
This was a nice play. I enjoyed it and is looking forward to more of Talberts plays.

This stage play demonstrated the power of love. The type of love that can only come through the loving God that we serve. What a wonderful & magical way to bring couples with unique but similar issues together.
 A lovely play...3.5 stars July 1, 2008
After watching Talberts 'Fabric of A Man', I decided to get this play and liked it. I give it 3.5 stars as a play rating. It was engaging, funny and enlightening. It is about three couples who are at a crossroad in their relationship. All three wants commitments from their lovers. I am one of many women unsure about marriage today.
Let's talk about Deborah Cox's role. She played a woman (Monique) who desperately wanted her boyfriend (played by the handsome Mel Jackson) to commit and marry her. He simply did not want to. I really enjoyed the dialogue between the two. He says its better to remain live-in lovers because the relationship stays fresh. He compared it to leasing a car. While Deborah Cox says marrying a woman is like buying a house. Treat them right and their value increases. I actually liked the fact that Mel was honest about his feelings. Plus wait til you hear his rationale...funny. A new neighbor mends the three couples back together. In the end the men all see the light, but one of then should have stood his ground. The play of course had spirtual undertones but was still enjoyable.
A nice outro from the writer is also present.
Not all characters were enjoyable (some a bit annoying) but they worked well together.
Look out for the ever handsome Mykel Shannon.
Must See May 27, 2008
LOVE IT!!! Buddy Lewis aka Renzo is so funny in this one. Deborah Cox is amazing as always. Cassie Davis (House of Pain) is her ole sweet christian self. Chico Bennymon was surprisingly good too. Joi Campbell was new to me but she held her own. Man Man and his Littles lol and you cant go wrong with that fine piece of chocolate Mel Jackson. If you like stage plays this is a must see. Production was great, taping was great and story line is very relatable.
