Play comes to South Florida Labor Weekend

Oliver Samuels leaned over to the microphone and asked with a smile: “Unu memba Gregory Issacs? Him say the more them get it, is the more them want it..,so me haffi give it to them?”

That was in response to National Weekly about making Caribbean theater history in Florida by playing in an unprecedented four cities in a single weekend, as his hugely successful theatrical comedy, “Divorce Papers,” comes to South Florida this Labor Day Weekend, starting Friday, September 4th in Palm Bay. The play then stops in Pembroke Pines on Saturday, September 5th, Coral Springs on Sunday, September 6th and ends on Labor Day, Monday September 7th in West Palm Beach. Such an achievement is a testament to the product that Oliver Samuels delivers as no Caribbean family entertainment in any genre can boast such a schedule.

Despite the success of sold out shows for “Divorce Papers” night after night in Jamaica and Canada, Oliver remains humble. Probed more about Divorce Papers being possibly the highest grossing Caribbean play in history, Oliver says “Mi nuh know.”

“Perhaps is the fact that I have teamed with the great writer Basil Dawkins, perhaps is the cast the people love. We thrive to deliver good clean family entertainment and we are honored by the response. The Promoter actually wanted to add more shows in Florida based on ticket sales but unfortunately we will be touring from now until December so apologies in advance to my Florida fans who never got tickets.”
