The Color Purple

Saw the play 'The Color Purple' last night. Wow what a show! The cast, the set, lighting.. all of it phenomenal! The music was outstanding. Top notch, performance, truely.

My neighbor had asked me if I wanted to go and I jumped at the chance. So we then asked our other 2 neighbors to go and we made an evening out of it.

I was blown away by the whole experience, the music was so compelling and spell binding. Most of the early dialogue was just musical numbers, only towards the end was there alot more spoken dialogue. The story was magic and carried you through the life of Celie, losing her sister, being married to 'Mister', and growing up through heartache and pain. And her relationship with Shug. Loved all of the characters. The actors did a beautiful job. I was amazed by the whole experience.
