A spirited and intelligent ensemble comedy that follows the lives of a group of friends as each faces the emotional crisis that comes with turning 30. Fueled by a superb script and a great cast, Middleton has fashioned a frothy, yet savvy, portrait of upper-class, urban, African American Gen-Xers who confront the specter of adulthood and grownup responsibilities of marriage, children, and career with fear, trepidation, and an urgent desire to escape. With a zestful and truthful ring, 30 Years to Life portrays a set of engaging and personable characters: an investment banker with a great portfolio but few prospects for companionship; a stand-up comedian whose future in the biz is more than a little uncertain; a real-estate agent fighting a lifelong battle with weight; a marketing executive who fears that getting ahead is akin to growing old; and a young man in a long-term relationship who is being asked, "Where does it go from here?"
