THIS PLAY IS ONE OF DAVID E. TALBERT'S BEST. THE STORY WAS SO BEAUTIFUL AND THE SINGING WAS PHENOMENAL. I LOVED THE SONGS SO MUCH I WENT TO DAVID E. TALBERT'S WEBSITE TO BUY THE CD OF THE PLAY. DEBORAH COX DID AN AMAZING JOB. THIS PLAY SHOULD BE TURNED INTO A SITCOM. IT GOOD TO SEE GREAT STORIES SHOWING BLACK LOVE. IT IS A MUST SEE!!! GET YOURS TODAY!!

This was a great play, Deborah Cox was wonderful, the singing of all the characters was unbelievable. The interaction between the male characters was hysterical. The character of Khalif added just the right amount of spice to the pot without being over the top. All in all a great play about the African American male-female relationship at all different age levels.

I was able to sit through the entire DVD, but it didn't move me the way Tyler's plays does. This play seems to be geared towards the more serious minded person and I love a good laugh.

It was okay...it started out kind of long but got better towards the end...Mel Jackson was great & charming...Deborah Cox was splendid with her singing.....

This was an awesome play and anyone who gave it less than 5 stars doesn't know what their talking about. The singing and acting were perfect. This is a play you have to buy.

Excellent movie that deals with various relationships. It certainly touches on the inner workings of the human heart based on different individuals as well as different age groups.

A great mixture of comedy and drama. Most of us can relate to this in one way or another. Great acting.

It was okay I like it but it lost me a couple of times but it picked up in the end.

This is a good play with good music, and a good moral theme. My only disappointment was the fact that Marla Gibbs didn't have a big part in the play. I bought it mainly because her name was on the cover. I thought that she would be a part of the whole play. She is only shown at the beginning in a small part. It was still a good play though.

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.

I really enjoyed this product! I let my family members borrow it and everything, well worth the money!
