The first ever Heroes & Headliners concert will be held on Sat. Nov. 11 at Tampa’s MidFlorida Credit Union Amphitheater.

"This is going to be an incredible show as we celebrate and support the amazing folks of the military community," Gronkowski said in a video about the event.

“Walmart has a rich history of supporting the military, dating back to our first veteran associate, Sam Walton,” said Walmart U.S. president and CEO John Furner in a statement. “Like him, our American military community and their families have ensured the fabric of our freedom, and we’re forever grateful for their sacrifice and service.”

On February 21st, 1965, Malcolm X was murdered in New York City. Within days the NYPD had three suspects in custody. Those men were subsequently tried, found guilty, and sentenced to prison. But only one of those suspects ever confessed, and the other two men insisted they were innocent of the crime. Activist Abdur Rahman Muhammad was always unsettled by his understanding of the case. The more he dug into police records, FBI files, and city archives, the more he became convinced a great injustice had been committed in the arrest and conviction of these two men. Now, after years of pursuing the case, Muhammad stands on the brink of uncovering who may have fired the fatal shot that brought down the civil rights icon. As new links are revealed about the Nation of Islam, the New York police department and the FBI, can he finally discover who really killed Malcolm X?

About Your Husband Is Cheating On Us
April 1 9/8c
For generations, the urban theater experience has been a thriving component of African American entertainment in the United States. Each year, a tight-knit circle of talent from the worlds of film, TV, theater, R&B, gospel and pop come together to tour across the country, selling out major venues in inspirational musical stage productions. Your Husband Is Cheating On Us will shine a light on this powerful world revealing the show behind the show. Over the course of the series, producer and director JD Lawrence mounts his new production of the stage play Your Husband Is Cheating On Us, implementing unorthodox creative methods with his cast, Ginuwine, D’atra Hicks, Tondy Gallant, Lia Grant, Kristen Plati, and Jermaine Sellers. His strategies include moving everyone into a house together and injecting real-life experiences from their lives into the script. Additionally, the behind-the-scenes drama between the cast members takes matters to another level that will either make or break the show.
"'Pony' Singer Ginuwine Finds Drama and Romance on the Urban Theater Circuit in New Bravo Series"
“This ain’t Broadway, baby!”
R&B star Ginuwine is going for a ride on the urban theater circuit, and PEOPLE’s got the exclusive premiere of just how bumpy it’s going to be.
The “Pony” singer, né Elgin Baylor Lumpkin, is starring in a new musical from director and producer JD Lawrence — the making of which is being documented for a new Bravo docuseries titled Your Husband Is Cheating on Us.
Lawrence (like Tyler Perry before him) has made a name for himself over the years as one of the most prominent faces of the urban theater experience, earning the title “The King of Dramedy.”
A thriving component of African-American entertainment in the United States, urban theater — also known over the years as inspirational theater, black Broadway, gospel theater and the chitlin’ circuit — brings together talent from the worlds of film, TV, theater, R&B, gospel and pop to tour across the country, grossing millions of dollars a year in the process.
Bravo fans might remember how The Real Housewives of Atlanta explored the making of a similar musical a few seasons back called A Mother’s Love, produced by Xscape singer Kandi Burruss. Fellow Atlanta Housewife Porsha Williams, meanwhile, has been learning lines this season on RHOA for a stage play version of Two Can Play That Game with Vivica A. Fox.
Lawrence’s latest show is one called Your Husband Is Cheating on Us (the name of which carries over to the title of the Bravo show). Besides Ginuwine, who will play the role of the musical’s resident “player,” he’s assembled a cast of characters together to bring his story to life.
That includes Lia Grant (dubbed “the leading lady”), D’Atra Hicks (“the diva”), Tondy Gallant (“the best friend”), and understudies Kristen Plati and Jermaine Sellers — all of whom appear to be at one another’s throats.
The cast only have eight short weeks to memorize their lines and learn Lawrence’s blocking. And if that weren’t enough, he’s moved them all into a house together, injecting their real-life feuds (and in Ginuwine’s case, hookups) into the script.
Will they, as Lawrence hopes, “be ready to put on a performance of a lifetime?”
Your Husband Is Cheating on Us premieres Sunday, April 1 (9 p.m. ET) on Bravo.
