"Celebrates the inspiring relationships of faith and love."
—USA TODAY

 
From Alice Walker's classic Pulitzer Prize-winning novel and the landmark film by Steven Spielberg comes a soul-stirring new musical. The Color Purple is an inspiring and unforgettable story of a woman who, through love, finds the strength to triumph over adversity and discover her unique voice in the world. With a moving book and a score featuring gospel, jazz, ragtime, and the blues, The Color Purple is ultimately a story of hope, a testament to the healing power of love, and a celebration of life.
