David E. Talbert's musical "Love on Layaway" - Monique Graham

First, there's Ms. Willanetta, who after a life-changing religious experience, no longer wants to have relations with her suitor of twelve years, Renzo. Next, there's Epiphany, a single mother who has yet to decide who will be the man in her life, her new boyfriend Reggie or her six-year-old son, Man Man. Finally, there's Monique Graham, who feels as if her relationship with live-in boyfriend Anthony is on layaway and he's making the absolute lowest monthly payments.
