I had a request for this poster from the broadway play and decided to add it to the blog for all who may be seeking it.  For those who don’t know this play comes from a choreopoem.  It consists of a series of 20 poems performed through a cast of nameless women, each known only by a color.  It was written by Ntozake Shange in 1975.  Below you will find the poster to the play and also a TV adaptation of the play and the actual play published as a book.  Enjoy!
