THE STUTTERING PREACHER
by Levy Lee Simon Synopsis (Comedy)
Who says a preacher shouldn't explore his or her sexuality? Who says a preacher shouldnt have many partners? Sexually speaking that is. Who says a preacher shouldnt lustfully admire the female form? Clarence Jackson the III Pastor for the New Zion Baptist Church preaches the gospel of free love and he has a reputation for loving women and women do love him. He is the leader of the flock literally. The thing is he stutters, and he is trying to convince sweet fine Efay that he is a sincere God fearing man. Efay, is a strong-minded, no nonsense Black woman who does not want to hear it because she has heard it all, until she meets the uncensored mouth and mind of Reverend Clarence Jackson. The comedy and drama centers around Efay and Clarence as the pursuit for sex, love and happiness takes us on a ride with a stuttering preacher and a stubborn woman. Who will win?

 “You better be strong.”   Set in 1991, the televised musings of self-help guru Dr. Waxling (Joseph Dunn) send Martin Mirkheim (Brian Ridings) on a cross-country crusade to get his unwilling mentor’s book made into a movie.  To do this, Martin  “refuses to be trapped by limitations outside his main focus,” namely $47,000 in back taxes due to the state of Florida, professional annihilation via a recently bankrupt circus and ice-skating tour booking business and a guru that “does not see him as a threat” (AKA will not take a meeting with him).  Mirkheim will enlist anybody – from a shady business man Kim (Adam Hunter Howard) and his coke-dealing associate Ron (Dan Fishbach) to his disgruntled ex wife (Jerri Tubbs) – and stop at nothing – lying, manipulation, and even murder – in order to get his movie made and become “the biggest threat there is.”  Howard Korder’s (author of BOY’S LIFE) darkly comic allegory, coming this summer to The Ruby Theatre at The Complex in Los Angeles.
