Beautiful sets, all-star actors and beautiful music and movement await at DCPA's production of 'The Color Purple,' a musical adaptation of Alice Walker's book.
."With this musical, I was able to work in collaboration with the artists based on our shared cultural memories to find different ways of moving."
The musical's movements are rooted in Black cultural dances and intentionally paired with the lyrics. "There is no separation between the acting, dancing and singing," says Edidi."They are all rooted in the emotional reality of the character. It is an honor to work with performers who have such a high level of musicality that they bring to the music and words.
While the creative team hopes everyone enjoys the musical, the true desire is for audiences to recognize that the story of"We have Celies, Sofias and Squeaks living among us in 2023," says Edidi."I hope people acknowledge that we have a country full of Black women and use their frustration at the injustices that happen in the musical to support Black women across the country.
