When an African American woman and a Nigerian man announce their engagement after a swift courtship, their families gather for a meal in Oakland. What begins as a celebration soon simmers with tension as cultural differences, familial expectations, and questions of identity bubble to the surface. Written by Lisa B. Thompson and directed by Matrex Kilgore, this is a rolling world premiere.
