A well-loved holiday favorite is taking center stage in Detroit. A brand-new stage production will bring “The Preacher’s Wife” to life.

Award-winning gospel singer Kierra Clark Sheard is bringing the film to life on stage, which originally starred Denzel Washington and Whitney Houston. Sheard, the play’s creative director, discussed the production on “Live In The D.”

Sheard claims that there is some confusion between the play and the movie. “The angel isn’t pursuing the preacher’s wife, which is the only difference between us here.” She says that although they somewhat misrepresented it, the angel continues to offer advice and assistance.

Sheard says she wants the play to inspire people and let them know that even in the face of adversity, things will work out.
