“...somebody/anybody, sing a black girl’s song, bring her out to know herself to know you...” Join the circle as seven women share their stories and find strength in each other’s truth, passion and humor. This fusion of poetry, dance, music and song explodes off the stage and touches the hearts and minds of all those who experience it. It’s time for joy. It’s time for sisterhood. It’s time for colored girls.
“The poems introduce the girls to other kinds of people of color, other worlds. To adventure, and kindness, and cruelty. Cruelty that we usually think we face alone, but we don’t. We discover that by sharing with each other we find strength to go on. The poems are the play’s first hint of the global misogyny that we women face.” - Ntozake Shange
“A poignant, gripping, angry and beautiful work.” - Time
“A triumphant event, filled with humor. Pure theatre.” - New York Daily News
