THE COLOR PURPLE

Book by Marsha Norman
Based upon the novel written by Alice Walker and on the Warner Brothers/Amblin Entertainment motion picture
This musical adaptation of Alice Walker’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel (and the popular 1985 Steven Spielberg film) spotlights Celie, a downtrodden young woman whose personal awakening over the course of 40 years forms the arc of this epic story. With a joyous score featuring jazz, ragtime, gospel, African music and blues, THE COLOR PURPLE is a story of hope, a testament to the healing power of love, and a celebration of life. It premiered at the Alliance Theatre Company in Atlanta, Georgia and opened on Broadway on November 1, 2005, where it was nominated for eleven 2006 Tony Awards®, including Best Musical, Best Book, and Best Original Score. The London off-West End production moved to Broadway in 2015, winning the Tony Award® for Best Revival of a Musical.

Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Based on a Conception of Jerome Robbins
As relevant today as when it premiered in 1957, WEST SIDE STORY is widely regarded as among the best musicals ever written. This landmark Broadway musical (with a legendary score by Leonard Bernstein) transports Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet to modern-day New York City as two young, idealistic lovers find themselves caught between warring street gangs, struggling to survive in a world of hate, violence and prejudice. Featuring immortal songs such as “Tonight,” “Something’s Coming,” and “I Feel Pretty,” WEST SIDE STORY is certain to move, charm and captivate audiences old and new.
