Got tickets and looking forward no doubt.

puhleeeze, jeezus.That's a cut and paste job putting that head on Heather Headley's body!Can't wait to see this one with Jennifer Holiday.

she does all, and my friend in the show says she's not missed a single one.

One of my faves from last decade was Fantasia singing I'm Here from The Color Purple:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZpTQtcr1YI

Wondering who you all would cast as JHud as Shug Avery in The Color Purple. I sure liked that first production's actress, Elizabeth Whithers Mendez as Shug. Might she come back? Or ???

Wiped out from it. Top three shows I've ever seen on stage - there with:Gypsy (1989)Passion (1994) and now The Color Purple (2015)It is THAT GOOD.Doyle's set stuns me as a metaphor for home, brokenness and the ways sitting and being still was a rare respite from hard lives of black folks of the time. G...

They say thank you. They are naming the baby after you in the next production. God bless, and goodnight.

I always loved PIZZA.

'cuz they have sad lives and feel better about the size of their cell my making other's smaller still, in their own minds.

Now, that's a good one.

takes from 6000 seats to 1400 seats or so?
