Presented in Association with Tribute Productions
What would the world look like if people were happy 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year? Contemporary African Americans’ attitudes about race, class and social activism are put under a humorous microscope as two Washington couples endure a civilized weekend camping trip for a birthday celebration. One night together, complete with a misunderstood hip-hop poet, a very old tree and a large bottle of vodka, complicates and ultimately illuminates their inner and outer lives.
Featuring Deidra LaWan Starnes, Michael Kramer, Craig Wallace, Fatima Quander, Baye Harrell. Set Design: Daniel Ettinger. Costume Design: LeVonne Lindsay. Lighting Design : Dan Covey. Sound Design: Chas Marsh. Properties: Linda S. Evans.
