In a recent interview, producer and actress Joyce Licorish said, “The city needs to support this show because it’s a rare opportunity for the community to look at some amazing local African American talent.”

The cast of the show is compromised of local dancers, singers, actors and musicians who all share the same dreams—seeing the historic story of The Color Purple come to the stage.

“The atmosphere of this show is really like being around family. Once the camera began snapping, all of the cast really bonded and began getting really silly just like candid family photos.” said Pounds and publicist of the show.

Audience members will be able to view the exclusive behind the scenes photos from the shoot during show times.
