Its been described by patrons as “ a hilarious comedy”, “fun-filled drama”, “a nice uptown roots play”, “a beautiful love story”, “a subtle Christian play”, and even “a dream come through”, in a recent review from a prominent local newspaper. Whichever way you interpret the current hit comedy/drama one thing is certain; Adrian Nelson’s Dream Merchant has given very high marks by all genres of theatre goers who have watched the play so far.
“I guess they are all correct because although my critics said it couldn’t be done, Dream Merchant was deliberately written and directed to encompass all the various ingredients required to have a well-rounded play”, smiled playwright Adrian Nelson as he read one of the reviews. Moon River was a surprising success but Dream Merchant has blown everything out of the water as most of the play nights were solidly booked by charitable organizations and groups searching for an entertainment package with some amount of substance and value to invest in.
Dream Merchant, written by Adrian nelson and produced by the King of Comedy, Oliver Samuels O.D. and Adrian Nelson, tells the rags to riches story of a young girl from the country who realizes her career dream only to discover the dreadful hidden consequences that are accompanied with her success.
The play stars legendary actress, ‘Dancehall Queen’ Audrey Reid, Dorothy Cunningham, Ronald Goshop, Kedecia Stewart and Tesfa Edwards, with another veteran in the theatre circuit, Carol Lawes sitting as director.
Adrian Nelson’s Dream Merchant is rated ‘General’ for the entire family and is again cleverly written to captivate from the roots play lovers to the uptown and even Christian audiences.
“I guarantee you will be pleasantly surprised and thoroughly satisfied…and this is not just because you might also get to meet and greet with Oliver Samuels”, who welcomed patrons at the door most nights.
