Theatre - Madea Goes to Jail
 "Click to view larger image")
MADEA IS BACK and she's like the matrix reloaded! Following a short rest, Madea returns to center stage! After all the runnin' from the popo and all the arrest warrants she ripped up, the pistol-tottin' queen of brash is locked up. In MADEA GOES TO JAIL, you will see a side of Madea that you have never seen before; and the results are perhaps …well you'll see! Tyler Perry has created yet another masterful and continuing storyline for his audiences. The production offers an interesting twist on "patience" and centers on love. MADEA GOES TO JAIL…they finally got me!
The focus of the story is Madea's family, of course. This time her loving nephew Sunny, his mean wife Vanessa and baby are living in Madea's house. Sunny works at the local prison and has a part-time job to support his family while his wife attends school for her master's degree. Vanessa is only interested in her needs and desires. Sunny, unaware of where Madea spent the night, goes to work and finds Madea in jail with some real convicts. Imagine that….yet steel bars and hardened criminals can't break Madea's brashness!
Madea's best girlfriend, Ella and Sunny hustle up the money to get her out. Not only does Madea get out of jail but she comes home with temporary custody of Toni, a 16-year old sassy child whose mother, Katie is doing jail time. Is Madea now a role model? NOT. However, she does play the ma'dear role in pulling together all the fragment pieces in the lives of Ella, Toni and especially Sunny. Sunny has to deal with restructuring his life after his wife proves to be unworthy and his son a victim of irresponsibility and neglect.
Continuous moments of laughter and high emotional songs describe the highlights for this production from beginning to end. Tyler Perry and a fine cast of seasoned veterans demonstrate the old cliché, 'there's some good in all bad'. You can certainly expect the unexpected filled with elements of surprises.

Tyler Perry is fantastic. His message brings moral values back into the spotlight. I highly respect, admire, and wish him and his staff much success. I wish everyone could see this film, and most importantly get the messages he brings with such good humor. God Bless everything he does.
