Event Info: 

  It's Broadway-bound, but you'll see the World Premiere of this soul-stirring version of Alice Walker's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel at the Alliance Theatre first! The Color Purple is a family saga of hope, inspiration and triumph as Walker's diverse and unforgettable characters come vividly to life on stage. Blending dance with the sounds and rhythms of blues, gospel, jazz, swing, rural roots and African music, this acclaimed, sweeping epic - which Ms. Walker has called a universal story with music in its soul - sings with emotion, wit and love of life. And this beautiful new musical adaptation by Marsha Norman (the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright of 'night, Mother), Brenda Russell, Allee Willis and Stephen Bray is the cannot-be-missed-event of not only Atlanta, but the national theatre scene!
