Thornton Wilder’s Our Town will be at True Colors Theatre from February 25-March 21, 2010.

Cheap Tickets to Blood Knot & for colored girls who have considered suicide when the rainbow is enuf

admin | July 13, 2009

I’ve read Shange’s “for colored girls who have considered suicide when the rainbow is enuf,” but the experience is similar to reading most plays—you miss a lot when you don’t see it on stage.
