The Billie Holiday Theatre consistently provides the best in Brooklyn Community Theater and Off Broadway shows in NYC . If you're looking for fun things to do in Brooklyn, a romantic date idea, or a family activity in Brooklyn, then look no further. I've seen the opera at Lincoln Center, Broadway shows in NYC, and heard the symphony at Carnegie Hall; when you look at the dollar for dollar value, the productions at the Billie Holiday stand up to just about any of the more famous New York City attractions. The last production, Love and Marriage and New York City, was a poignant microcosm of the world in which we all live. The actors were fantastic, and the themes were universal. The Billie Holiday is much more than the premier black theater in New York City, it is, simply put, a consistent provider of the best Brooklyn plays and shows, affordable to all, relevant to all. Love and Marriage and New York City was my third Billie Holiday production. Where else can you sit in the third row with a party of three for under $70? Certainly not at Wicked, Legally Blonde, Mary Poppins, Chicago, Hairspray or any of the other Broadway shows in New York. Looking forward to more amazing Brooklyn shows and off Broadway theater productions from the crew at the Billie! |

I usually come to all of your production and have found them all 'Excellent'.
To God be the Glory!!!!
I came back to see Love and Marriage with a group of my co-workers, which
they are still talking about. The special $10.00 rate allowed me to treat
them to night at the theater, which in turn will support more ticket sales with
your next production.
When you've been blessed, pass it on......
P.S. I'm very impressed with the excellent scripts and stories that our
people have produced in this small setting, one set stage with excellent
actors and meaningful lessons with each theme.
Eagerly awaiting the next show.....! |

I really enjoyed this play. Although it was focused around the issue of a marriage for convenience, the playwright was creative it weaving the point of being open to love and expressing your feelings before it's too late. The play was very humorous, but this aspect of the play was thought provoking and emotional. It made me realize that some people can find it challenging to love and be loved for fear of being abandoned or not loved in return. But you have to take a chance in expressing your feelings to those who love you before its too late. I would highly recommend this play. |

I highly recommend this play to be seen. The play was very entertaining. One can relate to the theme(s) and situations being portrayed in the play. The actors embodied their roles and connected with their fellow actors, and so provided a fluid, realistic and funny performance. Lots of kudos to the playwright and actors, the play was well written, relevant to the Caribbean community, and also relevant to male/female and family relationships for everyone in general. |

I enjoyed the show very much
and the actors played their parts very well. The characters were
strong especially the stock broker (female) and Theo (the cousin). The immigration status of the characters was not brought up except for the scene when the rehearsal was done in anticipation of the INS appointment.
The reversal of the roles of the couples was not anticipated. The model's compassion was also strong. Would go to see it again. |
