GOODBYE COLOR PURPLE!

I'm seeing it today at 2pm for the first and last time.

I'm quite excited but very sad.

I scored a row H center Orch. seat this morning online. I hear this show is quite the tear jerker and I am ready for it.

I'll miss this show. Congrats to this show, and have fun to whoever has a ticket! Make sure to give us a DETAILED review!

Goodbye Color Purple! The show touched me tremendously and I thank everyone involved for creating such an amazing experience.

All the best!

There was no rush for the shows today? That's odd.

Looking forward to tonight :)

I was lucky enough to see it with the orginal cast. I really wanted to see it with Chaka. For those going, please post details about tonight's show. I wish I lived in New York!

Yes, please post details about tonight's show !!!

Goodbye Color Purple! I was lucky enough to see the OBC and the company when Fantasia was in it. You'll be missed.

Cheers,

Christopher

I just returned from seeing the matinee----I've never seen this show before and I was amazed at how good it was-----the acting and talent were incredible. I'm surprised it's closing---
The actress who played Celie (I don't remember her name)----had an emotional moment singing her last solo and her voice cracked on the last note ----- the audience definitely appreciated her talent. (I don't know the score well enough to name the number) But----very well done show!

One of the greatest shows I've ever seen. You will be missed <3

Just got back from the final performance! It was AMAZING! The cast was miles better than the last time I saw it. Although Zonya was vocally exhausted, her acting was wonderful and she was very smart about the way she sang (not reaching for notes she can't hit). It would have been nice if Chaka Khan and BeBe Winans knew their lines for the final show, but ah well . . . Angela was the best I've seen her; "What About Love" was one of the best reditions I've seen. Krisha was a riot and she was balling throughout the end.

There were tons of added moments. The end of "Mysterious Ways" went on forever as Doug Eskew riffed on. It was very touching, at one point he said something like "And one last time now you all" and such. It even got a standing ovation. There were many funny monents provided by the ensemble. In particular, two cast members doing the dirty deed on the piano during "Uh Oh!" The engery level was so high and the audience was great. A few former cast members were there, most notably Felicia. This was my first time at the closing performance of a Broadway show and it was wonderful! Despite the unfortunate events of this morning.

Color Purple had quite a healthy run and it is quite a touching show. Goodbye!
