About this Event

Experience a captivating stage play that seamlessly blends drama, comedy, and an electrifying 90s R&B concert!

"WHEN YOU CRY, I CRY" starring Tony Terry, Christopher Williams, and George Willborn is coming to The Greenwood Oasis Theater, located at 7621 S Greenwood Ave, on April 25, 2026, at 5:00 PM (Central Time) - VIP Meet and Greet (2:00 - 3:30 p.m.).

Bobby Jenkins (Tony Terry) and his wife, Joyce (Khadijah Freeman), once enjoyed a passionate marriage. However, following the tragic loss of their 13-year-old son to street violence two years ago, Joyce struggles to cope. Unable to communicate her feelings, she turns to drugs to fill the emptiness. Bobby, still deeply in love with her, feels increasingly distant. Despite his efforts to reconnect, Joyce's depression worsens. Now, Bobby must decide whether to fight for their marriage or give Joyce the space she believes she needs to grieve.

Bobby finds solace from the heavy clouds of depression in his household by visiting his friends, Larry (Christopher Williams), Comedian George Willborn, Reggie (Corey Bailey), Cascious (Mr. Leslie), Rico (Syamasundara Mu Bey), and Carlos (Robert Kane) at Larry's Place, a vibrant local bar brimming with laughter and camaraderie.

Experience an unforgettable production that masterfully blends intense drama, comedic moments, and the soulful melodies of a 90s R&B concert, all in one powerful performance that will touch your heart. Join us for an experience that will leave you moved and inspired. Don't miss this incredible opportunity to see two legends in action.
