Review: 

Is there a family that doesn’t have a few skeletons in the closet? Surely not the new preacher, Reginald Mabry (Norm Lewis) and his nearly perfect wife, Baneatta (Cleo King). But pretty soon, things begin to unravel. Son Kenny (Devere Rogers) comes to his grandpas’ funeral with a friend, Logan (Michael Urie), who’s not only white but also Jewish, and much more than just a friend.

Things are rolling along just fine for the feisty Mobry family when in walks a lady named Brianna Jenkins (Natasha Yvette Williams). Who is she? Where does she come from? And why is she here at this family event?

The cast is uniformly excellent, and the pace never drops. I’ll bet even the food is good. Chicken Biscuits just might leave you hungry for more.
