The farcical themed play is about playing a twist on the sexist opinion of people who go to fortune tellers, practitioners of the occult, and Mojo Priests to have spells and incantations manifested on enemies, opponents, and especially loved ones when reasoned conversation is not an option. Four men who are total strangers find themselves answering a discount offering flier for a Thursday Men's Only meeting with a conjure man who promises to help solve their most pressing love relationship problems. For $50 they are promised that the solution can come only if they go through a three stage ritual and at the end the spell that will be cast upon their mates will be equal to the severity of their unique situations. And as an added bonus not only will the spell be supernatural, but each man will see the future as the spell is played out on their mates. This hilarious situation forces the men to bond together and to open up to each other to reveal that exact moment when they each confronted an unsolvable confrontation with their mates. The telling of their tells will be done in two stages. The first stage is they own perception of what is wrong with their mates. And the second stage is the truth as it really is. Scenes are played out in spotlighted monologues in which they and their mates play out that moment of the last straw. All of the men are eager to cast spells upon their mates and are given the opportunity in the last stage to see theconsequences and reactions of the spells and to change their minds or to okay the spell. The play is meant to be over the top and farcical. The characters are almost super-stereotypical.
