A testament to the healing power of love. The epic Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Alice Walker comes to life in an emotional tour de force musical infused with a soul-stirring score of jazz, gospel, ragtime, and blues. Set against the backdrop of the American South in the early 20th century, the story follows the transformative journey of Celie, a young African American woman who courageously navigates a life marked by abuse, separation, and discrimination to discover the strength to break free from oppression and find her own voice. This inspiring show is a triumphant piece of art that reaffirms some fundamental truths: that Black is beautiful, that women are powerful, and that love is love.
Book by Marsha Norman
Music and Lyrics by Brenda Russell, Allee Willis, and Stephen Bray
Based upon the novel written by Alice Walker and the Warner Bros./Amblin Entertainment Motion Picture
Directed by Corey Mitchell, Music Direction by Charlene Miranda Corbett, and Choreography by Stacy Dagge
