Westcoast Black Theatre Troupe opens its 2015-2016 season with "The Color Purple." This inspiring musical tells the story of an unforgettable woman who triumphs over adversity and discovers her unique voice in the world. Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Alice Walker (and the popular 1985 Steven Spielberg film), the play chronicles Celie’s 40-year evolution from near-enslavement to enlightenment through heartfelt letters to God and her long-lost missionary sister. With a jubilant score of roof-raising gospel, jazz, and throaty blues, "The Color Purple" is the tale of an every-woman triumphing over adversity, and a testament to the power of hope.
