| PLEASE BRING THIS PLAY BACK..I HAVE FRIENDS WHO WANT TO SEE IT.
David Heron is an excellent writer and actor.
This is my second time seeing this play. I enjoyed it because it describes real life experiences which everyone can related to.
The way David has woven the plots together and the nuiances of each character is excellent and very natural.
I related mostly to the character Jessica & the transformation she underwent..as I am also a career woman. From my perspective, it is natural that she "rises in love with Theo" because he makes her a better and well rounded person--by providing her with a large part of what is missing in her life. All the actors are very good in this play and bring their characters to life, and each character goes through a transformation and growth.--Again, David does a excellent job with the writing and the actors complement that with their acting.
I'm happy that upon its return, the same actors portrayed those characters. |

| I was feeling down in the dumps when I saw that another play was going to be at the Billie Holiday Theatre and I said to myself I needed to get out.
I was so glad I purchased that ticket. I haven't laughed like that for a good while.
The play truly gave me a spiritual uplift and also remined me of some of the trials
and tribulations I've been through in my life in reference to relationships.
Please keep the good plays coming! |

| I enjoyed my night out. I laughed because it was entertaining.
It was a play advertised for teenagers and up. I would not have been comfortable seeing the play with a 13,14,15,16,17or 18 year old because of the sexual overtones. My teenager could see the play with his friends, not with Mommy. All the performers were great,but Mr. Nixon Cesar was excellent. I recommend this community play. Good Luck to the actors.

| An out of town engagement had my returning a tad late to make the Sunday performances. My guest and I truly intended to do a repeat. The character Jennifer was me on that stage. She is the essence of so many women who just can not give up or in to another. Jennifer performed the role perfectly.
My guest so enjoyed the male characters. Himself a writer and the nephew of Alex Haley, he not only felt the writer's genius but also saw in his giving over to the role of the invalid a most delightful performance. The role of Natalie was performed well by the young lady and Theopholus was 'off the chain'.
I certainly will attend again and again and will sell tickets this time of do as I have done in the past, buy a block of tickets and treat my friends.
Again, "cuddoes" to Love & Marriage & New York City".
Most Sincerely,
Judy Thurston McNeil

| The evening was in celebration of a couple of birthdays for the group. The play "Love, Marriage, and New York City" was a perfect ending to a wonderful evening full of fun and laughter.
We were not all of caribbean decent, but we all had fun and could relate to the story as it unfolded on stage. The show was almost interactive as the audience got so caught up in the circumstances of the characters on stage that they were offering advice and/or encouragement.....making everyone else laugh in response.
I would recommend "Love, Marriage, and New York City" as a must see event! |

| I thought that the play was very good with the exception of its length. It captured much of the experience of the upwardly mobile immigrant and what they face in trying to make it in a new country.
The comedic timing was for the most part good but because of the length sometimes it felt that the jokes fell short of the mark.
