Charbria Shine’s Single Woman Chronicles The Stage Play’s purpose is to encourage single women to thrive in life and to create their own lane despite societal and family pressures to hurry up and settle down because their clock is ticking. It encourages women to find wholeness, joy and self before focusing on love.

Single Woman Chronicles tells Kera Kensington’s story, a young woman who is obsessed with love and marriage to her detriment but through a series of events she finds healing, wholeness and life again after a devastating breakup.

The play follows Kera and her best friends Mercedes and Tatiana whose experiences with men challenge their self worth, faith and identity. With “real talk” monologues and fun tunes this play challenges the stigmas associated with being a single woman.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT

SINGLE WOMAN CHRONICLES

 

“Single Woman Chronicles was an inspirational, encouraging and hilarious play. Me being a widow, society puts me in the single category. I learned that I’m okay being single while raising my daughters. This is a must see for every single woman. I would go see it again.”

— Lillian H.

“We as women are looking for love, acceptance and fulfillment and most often try to find it in all the wrong places. Each character in the play was looking for a man to solve their love or emotional problems. But the main character had her struggle with the man she was seeing and managed to apply self-love to get thru it. This truly was a phenomenal play filled with laughter and real life situations. It touched me because I saw myself in every character. The focus was to reach women to let them know their true potential as a woman and how we are a valued treasure. I wish ALL single women could have attended the play. It definitely was a self-esteem booster!! I felt like a super single woman hero, all empowered to save the world!!! Thank you for allowing the Lord to use you to reach women who have lost hope.”

— Evelyn P.

“The play was simply amazing and had a great message that it delivered to all age groups of women and young girls. Never think that you are less than because you are not married by a particular age . Learn to be patient and wait on who God has for you. The man God has for you will treat you like the precious gem that you are. He will be so worth the wait. Thank you for this wonderful and well put together play. I honestly think this play could've been at the Arie Crown Theatre. It was that good to me. Much success to you lady. I take my hat off to you. Keep operating in your gift!!!”

— Jennifer W.

“The show was great! My husband and I really enjoyed it from beginning to end. The acting was professional and spot on for a live show! Everything was executed with excellence! I was impressed but I expected nothing less!!!!”

— Jessica J.

“SHOUT OUT TO Charbria Shine and the cast and crew of Single Woman Chronicles, the Stage Play! It was awesome, hilarious, emotional and spiritual all at the same time! I pray and hope this play goes on the road. It’s for everyone, single or married! It blessed me! Charbria, you have always been a gem and the way God has made room for your gifts is mind blowing. Please don’t slow down cause it Glorifies God!”

— Jessica N.

“Thank you for your sacrifice and commitment to serve the body of Christ through the arts. You understood the assignment , that was top tier and didn’t miss a “single” scenario …get it… SINGLE scenario! The production was so well thought out, from every perspective , from the ushers to the sales table. And my favorite part was altar call at the end. It spoke volumes and brought it all back to the KING in thee most powerful way possible! I KNOW what it took to complete the assignment and for this we give Him praise. Continue being ALL God has made you… we need you and this type of artistry in the body of Christ!”

— Joi E.

“SWC deals with the struggles that women face everyday navigating singleness. While offering much comedic relief, the play infuses biblical truths that encourage today’s ‘single woman’. Enjoyable for women of all generations. A must see for the Christian woman!”

— Yaminah J.

“This show was not only very entertaining, but inspiring, motivating and encouraging. What a great message for single ladies of all ages, status and seasons of life! Charbria and her crew knocked it out of the park with their talent and stage presence. I highly recommend you see this show!”

— Tonia F.

“The Single Woman Chronicles was an absolute heartfelt, real life , awesome stage play! The acting was on point with all the actors- you could truly feel tugs at your heart and tear filled eyes with the situations the actors were portraying. A class act for sure! It truly made you think and evaluate your own life and reminded us all of the never failing love of our Heavenly Father!! Thank you for this act of love that you shared with us!”

— Natasha A.

“The Single Woman Chronicles Play was beautifully executed. I could relate to all of the characters. It was truly an honor to be in attendance! More plays please Charbria!!!”

— Karen W.

“The show was the bomb-diggity. It had all the ingredients to showcase why it's worth waiting for God to send you a Godly man because God knows what you're getting when he sends that special man to you. All the people in the show were terrific in keeping it real and current as well as plenty of laughs!”

— Carla B.

“I thoroughly enjoyed Single Woman Chronicles. The show was realistic and touched on every area of being single, the good and what some would deem “the bad”. It stressed the importance of knowing who you are in Christ while being a single woman. The characters were very diversified in lifestyle but still dealt with many of the same struggles as single women. This show is definitely a must-see!”

— Carmen P.
