(New York, October 22, 2008) Darryl Stephens (Boy Culture), Rodney Chester (Punks), Doug Spearman (Cradle 2 the Grave), Christian Vincent (Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous) and Jensen Atwood (“Dante’s Cove”), lead an ensemble cast in “NOAH’S ARC: JUMPING THE BROOM,” a sassy, funny and fierce look at the lives of a close-knit quartet of African-American gay men who discovered their real family when they found each other.
When Noah (Darryl Stephens), a young screenwriter from Los Angeles, agrees to marry his partner Wade (Jensen Atwood) in a small ceremony on Martha’s Vineyard, he invites his three closest friends, Alex (Rodney Chester), Ricky (Christian Vincent) and Chance (Doug Spearman) to travel cross-country with them for a weekend of revelry.
