Cocoa Brown assails her craft with such passion and soul-searching veracity that when she claims a stage, the ensuing act is nothing short of a force of a nature. Cocoa draws from painful reminiscences and hard-knock lessons, weaving humorous tales that uplift, upend, and upgrade what you thought you knew about comedy. What drives the comic who female fans have nicknamed “The Truth”? The sheer will of a woman who survived the worst life had to offer and is still standing.

The story line is about Mrs. Pickie, who became a teacher after growing up and seeing her parents work like slaves on a plantation, and wanted a better life for herself and her sibling. After being picked by her parents to get an education and have the massa of the plantation pay for her schooling, Mrs. Pickie realized as she met her homeroom teacher at 10 years old, Mrs. Duberry, that she wanted to become a teacher.
