The Color Purple Tickets
The Color Purple: Background
Oprah Winfrey Presents: The Color Purple brings one of the most compelling works of fiction to life on stage. Tickets to the stage version will guide the audience through the story of Celie, an African-American woman struggling to find herself as she faces the oppression of her race and her sex.
As a fourteen-year-old girl she is pregnant for a second time and her father has decided that the child should disappear, much like the first child. A few years after he gives her child away, he gives Celie away to a farmer called Mister looking for a wife, along with a cow. Along the way as Celie grows up during the early- and mid-20th century, she is initially set back by the supposed loss of her sister Nettie, who is trying to escape the abuse and depravity of home life that she has learned to accept, but eventually learns she is not stuck.
Along the way in The Color Purple, Celie learns strength from a physically-imposing wife of her step-son, learns about love and her own sexuality from her husband’s mistress, and learns redemption as her husband tries to change. Her anger which is expressed in the song “The Color Purple” has been almost completely reversed in the final scene on the Fourth of July in 1949.
The Color Purple: 2008
The Color Purple has been going strong since it graced the stage first in 2005, being nominated for several Tony Awards and having no problem selling tickets on Broadway. It has since had an extended run in Chicago and is now on tour of the U.S. in selected cities.
