Madea's Big Happy Family Part 2

I know that God works in mysterious ways. One day Tyler Perry was searching on Youtube and came across a group called: The CraigLewis Band. This group is a combination of two amazing singers by the name of Craig and Lewis. They are gospel singers who are talented and have many videos posted on youtube. Tyler Perry got in contact with them and told them to quit their jobs because they were casted for his play. Honestly I dream for the day that Tyler Perry tells me to quite my job because he is casting me for his play. In Madea's Big Happy family Craig is 24 years old and he plays the character of a disfunctional 17 yearold boy in grade 6. In the play he finds out that "older sister" is his real mother. Craigs character is also the younger brother of Lewis character. Lewis plays a character in his 20's who is messed up in life because of girls and drugs. His current girlfriend encourages him to do some drug dealing so that he could have money to spend on her. In the play Craig and Lewis come together and sings their famous gospel medley "Even Me".


It is more that a blessing that these two friends are able have the experience of a lifetime. They probably never dreamed of having the chance to work on stage with Tyler Perry. I know that if I was given that opportunity, I would never take it for grated. God gave them voices that needs to be heard across the world. I know that this opportunity has opened the doors to many other opportunities for them in the future. The entertainment world is a tough business because people have to change their lifestyle, choices and values. Just so that they could be hired for a project/gig. However, I hope that TheCraigLewis Band can be apart of things that still represent them as who they are and not what others want them to be.
