A’ndre Davis is the acclaimed writer, producer, director, and lead actor of the powerful stage production Man of the House, which played to sold-out audiences during its three performance run at the historic Billie Holiday Theatre in Brooklyn earlier this month October 10th to 11th.  The play offers a bold and rarely explored narrative on domestic violence, told through the lens of a male survivor. With a compelling blend of heart, humor, and unflinching honesty, Davis ignites vital conversations around resilience, healing, and the often-overlooked experiences of men affected by domestic abuse.  In recognition of October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Man of the House stands as a timely and transformative work. The production featured a stellar cast, including:  Monifah, renowned R&B artist and actress, C. King, Comedian, actor, and host best known for Nick Cannon’s Wild ’N Out, Trinity Whiteside, Star of Tyler Perry’s Sistas and Zatima and Cortez Smith, Actor from the hit series The Chi.  A’ndre Davis’s theatrical credits include Dreamgirls, After The Walk (featuring Grammy-nominated artist Kelly Price), and Underneath It All (featuring Stellar Award winner Kierra Sheard).
