07:30 PM Let There Be Love by Kwame Kwei-Armah at Murphys Creek Theatre Through April 15
Murphys, CA...Dwight Mahabir stars as misanthropic West Indian Alfred Morris. When Alfred is kicked out of his daughter’s Croydon house, he returns to his Willesden home to find he’s been gifted a caretaker, Maria. Having alienated friends and family, he seems happy to live out his illness-ridden days in the solitude of his West London house. Maria, a struggling but determined Polish immigrant, will have none of it, and the cantankerous and xenophobic Alfred realizes that he may indeed still have a role in life.


Somewhere among the soulful lyrics of Nat King Cole and the mutual struggle of making a life in a foreign city, these flawed humans will find a path to solace from their haunting past.

Directed by Todd Thomas
