(EMAILWIRE.COM, June 19, 2011 ) Toronto, Ontario - Ova Mi Dead Body is Stages Productions’ latest groundbreaking production. The play boasts an ensemble of top-flight actors and is written and directed by Paul O. Beale. Andrea ‘Delcita’ Wright plays the lead role and expected to wow fans in The GTA with her hilariously contagious performance. Lolita Entertainment will produce four performances in Toronto, Scarborough, and Brampton beginning July 15 through July 17, 2011.
The cast is lead by Andrea Wright (Delcita), Michael Nicholson (Milton), Trudy Bell (Melcita), Belinda Reid (Mildred), Stede Flash (Stamma) and Donald Thompson (Mr. Sharp). According to thousands of pleased patrons in Jamaica, Guyana, New York, Connecticut, “Ova Mi Dead Body clocks in as being among the best play that Stages Productions has produced to date.”
As Stages continues its tradition of telling a powerful story in an entertaining manner. Ova Mi Dead Body explores a number of typical significant issues affecting DelcitaÂ’s family. These issues include single parenting, child abuse, and the death of a loved one. The play tells the very comedic story of Delcita as a widow struggling to make ends meet after the death of her husband. Melcita is her teenage daughter, hidden from her father due to an unfavourable social situation.
She suffers from an eye condition which if not treated will later lead to blindness and Delcita is adamant that MelcitaÂ’s sight must be saved. This motivates Delcita to leave Melcita with Milton and his common law wife (Mildred) as she jets off to New York in search of money for MelcitaÂ’s eye surgery. Upon her return to the island, she is confronted with the death of her husband and reality of not knowing whether he had made a will.
Melcita, having suffered the abuse of Milton and cantankerous Mildred, is now left with the daunting prospect of bleak financial outlook. While all this is happening Stamma, DelcitaÂ’s baby father, escapes from prison, having served two years for being innocently convicted of a serious crime. How will he take the news of Delcita marrying while he was in prison? In her quest to find the will Delcita is presented with one that makes Milton the sole beneficiary. Fraud is apparent, however, Delcita eventually finds a will. The question is; who is now in possession of the legal will?
Lolita Entertainment and DEVLOR Promotions are pleased to work with Stages productions to bring this hilarious play to the GTA. This production is proudly sponsored by Sterling Dentistry (Dr.Cherilyn Sterling-Case) 98 Queen St W Brampton) and TWSI (telecomwsi.com).
