Love African American Style
Writer: Marc L Abbott
Director: Steven Van Patten
Performer: Marc L Abbott
About the show: Marc L Abbott never thought he was much of a catch to anyone. He even questioned who and how he loved someone. After a heart wrenching breakup in college, he becomes a friend with benefits to a former crush. But when that spirals out of control, he turns to a form of personal ad dating in a desperate attempt to find love. When a woman answers the ad, an unexpected series of events happen that has Marc realizing this style of loving someone wasn’t always wrong.
