Productions With Purpose

2011-02-07T12:57:00.000-05:00

Since 2005 Link4Productions has produced its signature "Productions with Purpose", a movement to uplift, inspire and entertain the masses all in one show. Here's a little bit about our shows.

BE MADE WHOLE : This show full of music and dance is about the story of a man named Mike, forced to choose between the desire of his heart and the destiny of his life. As many young men face the trials of being in an environment where faith and doing the right thing are cast aside, Be Made whole proves that a second chance is possible. The show highlights the best and worst things that can happen to men in Urban America.

THE CHURCH FOLK: The hilarious play about life after Sunday, focuses on the trials and tribulations many pastors face with their congregations and family. Laughter, singing and dancing fill the theater as the story of a stressed out pastor is told working to find the balance between his fed up wife and out-of-control church members. This show is a treat the whole family and congregation can enjoy.

HOME SWEET HOME - A homebuyer's fair produced by Link4Productions and sponsored by Flagstar Bank. The fair gave homebuyers financing, credit and the basics on how to purchase a home.

POETRY NIGHT - Poets in metro Detroit rocked the mic with words from the heart in a special night of poetry, spoken word and song.

BACKSTAGE & PROJECT MANAGEMENT - In addition to producing its own projects, the team at Link4Productions also involves itself in the aid of other artists and producers. This includes project management and backstage assistance. For more information about backstage help contact Link4Productions@yahoo.com
