About this Event

Produced and Presented by The Chocolate Box Theater:

for colored girls who have considered suicide / when the rainbow is enuf

If you have neva seen dis here play before, then you have neva seen dis here play before. That goes without sayin.
But if you have seen dis here play before, you ain't neva seen it like dis right here. That's what I'm saying.
It's a rip roarin, mind bendin, finger snapping, tear jerking good time!
This 1976 work by Ntozake Shange. The second play by a black female author to run on Broadway, consists of a series of poetic monologues accompanied by dance movements and music, a form which Shange coined as a choreopoem. Capturing the brutal, tender and dramatic lives of contemporary Black women, for colored girls... offers a transformative, riveting evening of provocative dance, music and poetry.
