Tyler Perry's
Laugh To Keep From Crying
At the Petersen Events Center, Pittsburgh, PA
Saturday, November 7, 2009 @ 08:00 PM

Amazingly, Tyler Perry has built a solid portfolio of stage productions over the past 12 years.  Tyler Perry’s “Laugh to Keep from Crying” will surely bring much needed laughter with all the challenges we face today.  This 11th production touches the depths of our souls and has a lot of great poignant moments.   It explores confusion versus an illustration of courage.  A cast of veterans from former Tyler Perry productions will provide you with aclear perception to manage your own situations but on a lighter scale. 

 

The story line is based on life’s struggles in the heart of the neighborhood. With his multi-diversed cast, the production focuses on how to raise and understand teenagers in a society that is out of control; how does one understand and protect young people; how do you manage to keep a roof over your head when you lose your job and your retirement; where do you find a bed of roses when there is so much pain? A family that receives redemption and a neighborhood that comes together with hope, love and respect isrecognized.   As all of Mr. Perry’s stage productions have been in the past, this entertaining experience is full of great laughter, high quality singing and encouragement.  As they say during difficult times, you have to "Laugh To Keep From Crying"!

 

The ensemble includes
Palmer Williams, Jr
.(“Floyd” of Tyler Perry’s House of Payne and The Marriage Counselor) who gets involved in everyone’s business - this time as the landlord; you’ll remember the lovely Cheryl “PepsiiRiley, from previous stage plays and movies, as she portrays a single mother with 2 teenagers; D’atra Hicks, has been in his past productions –now who could forget her stellar voice;Chandra Currelley, a very familiarface and powerfultalent in his productions; and Mr. Perry is bringing back Tamar Davis, Stephanie Ferrett, and Donnie Sykes from “The Marriage Counselor”.
