When the talk show queen Oprah Winfrey came across the book The Color
Purple, she knew she had to bring the story to the rest of her audience. After recommending the book, Oprah also appeared
in the film. Now, she is helping to bring this story to a whole new audience in the form of a musical. Be prepared to be
amazed when you get tickets to this show.
The Color Purple is set in the 1930s and follows Celie, a young girl who is made to be an older widower’s wife.
Her new husband is physically and verbally abusive to her, further dampening her low self-esteem. Through other relationships,
however, Celie gains her self-worth and rises above her circumstances. See this moving story with The
Color Purple East Lansing tickets.
To make this stage show unlike any other experience, the makers of the musical version of The Color Purple have brought
in some of the best names in the business. The adaptation was written by Marsha Norman, who has won both a Pulitzer Prize
and a Tony Award. Brenda Russell, Stephen Bray and Allee Willis, who have all won Grammys, provided the music and lyrics.
