On International Women’s Day, we present this lyrical homage to Ntozake Shange's FOR COLORED GIRLS… which follows seven young girls on their journey into womanhood. Embracing multiple levels of play, the girls discover that their similarities expand beyond their assigned genders and their differences serve to bring them closer together. This harrowing and moving piece highlights the embryonic spark that erupts when girls unite to soothe their traumas, sort their puzzles, and share their triumphs.
Warnings: Contains coarse language and issues of rape/sexual assault, bullying, and racism.
