FAITHNLOVE

One performance only to support the Santa Monica Playhouse Keep the Doors Open Campaign.

Inspired by true life events and Native New Yorker/Nigerian playwright/director/producer Odunayo Majekodunmi’s experiences with Love, Friends and Family Relationships, FAITHNLOVE explores contrasting sides of Marriage, Challenges of overcoming marital obstacles, marriage counseling, fidelity, pregnancy, celibacy, interracial relationships and the cultural differences between Nigerians and African Americans. Add in jealousy among black women, insecurities, and Christianity, as each character searches for fulfillment through some form of Happiness: Love, Relationship, Faith, Spirituality, Career, Baby, Selflove.

Find yourself in at least one character in this warm, insightful and inspiring play, a much-needed theatre piece to inspire, motivate and encourage us to have Faith and hope in what we truly desire, as we emerge from the Pandemic Times and celebrate the Faith and Hope that allows us to achieve our creative life goals.

Join us for the post show Talk-Back and Reception with the artists (included in price of admission).

The Santa Monica Playhouse Benefit Series is an innovative program that presents extremely limited engagements of new and developing works by emerging and renowned local, national and international artists. Solo shows, concerts, spoken word and poetry nights, dance evenings, performance art and full productions, give voice to new material and artists who might otherwise not have a platform for their works.

Santa Monica Playhouse programs are supported in part by generous grants from the City of Santa Monica and the Santa Monica Arts Commission, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors through the Los Angeles County Department of Arts and Culture, and by Playhouse PALS.
