About this listen

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.

It would be interesting to see this on stage, though it wasn't an interesting enough story for me to want to revisit. The script itself was pretty good and William and Madeline did a great job acting. Jason and Aja, not so much. To me, the beginning was really disappointing. I thought the acting was just... bad. It sounded like they overdid it for the audio. Like they were compensating for not being able to show their face and body. I was dreading the rest. But when the two other characters arrived it got much better; even Jason and Aja's acting improved. They were all able to play off of each other really nice. That's just my opinion though, I'm no expert on acting or anything.

Pretty good
