Spotlight on Celie, a downtrodden young woman whose personal awakening over the course of 40 years forms the arc of this epic story. With a joyous score featuring jazz, ragtime, gospel, African music and blues, The Color Purple is a story of hope, a testament to the healing power of love, and a celebration of life. This powerful musical adaptation of Alice Walker’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel will leave a lasting impression.
