Saturday, November 5, 2016, at the Bel
Air Luxury Cinema at 6 p.m. in Detroit, Michigan, an innovative, independent
romantic comedy, titled Stay in Your Place, is making its red
carpet debut. This romantic comedy was produced in Detroit by The Shoe Lady
Productions and So Real Entertainment. It is based on the bestselling book
titled A Ho Needs to Stay in a Ho's Place,
written by Tonja Ayers. The book was initially adapted into a
groundbreaking stage play, Stay in Your Place, co-written by DuJuan
Johnson. After two sold-out shows, the stage play received blazing reviews and
accolades. There was a huge thrust of energy to take Stay
in Your Place to the next level.
Fast forward three months later. Tonja
Ayers and Mi'kiel Los decided to join forces and bring Stay in Your Place
to the big screen as an independent film. The book set the pace and the
response from the stage play had audiences loving the storyline of the married,
‘wannabe player’ Deshawn and his awkward attempts at juggling his wife and
‘side pieces’, aka women on the side. Now, with the recent revitalization in
Detroit’s entertainment industry, it is the perfect time and location for such
an edgy-yet-comical urban production. The independent film showcases Detroit’s
best theatrical and production talent.
