Review: The breathtaking beauty of ‘for colored girls’
10 / 10
This revival of 'for colored girls who have considered suicide/when the rainbow is enuf' is one link in a chain of productions re-introducing the work of our titans - Alice Childress, Adrienne Kennedy and more - to modern audiences. Only Shange's work has been on Broadway before, first premiering at the Booth Theatre, where the revival is currently playing, in 1976. It remains a seminal, sacred text; one I've been able to recite phrases from for the better half of my life. This revival, by director and choreographer Camille A. Brown, is the most essential production of Shange's masterwork to date.

The production, which opens April 20, takes the task of revival seriously - it's a joy to witness.
