The epic Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Alice Walker comes to life in an emotional tour de force musical infused with a score of jazz, gospel, ragtime, and blues. Set against the backdrop of the American South in the early 20th century, the story follows the transformative journey of Celie, a young African American woman who discovers the strength to break free from oppression and find her own voice. This Tony Award-winning musical is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring power of love.
