Theatre Arlington Presents: for colored girls who have considered suicide/when the rainbow is enuf

Theatre Arlington is proud to present this groundbreaking choreopoem that is a spellbinding collection of vivid prose and free verse narratives about and performed by Black women. Time Magazine called it “...poignant, gripping, angry, and beautiful work,” and Executive Producer Steven D. Morris believes “it is a great way to start important and difficult conversations.”
Ken’ja Brown returns to Theatre Arlington to helm this incredible work, having previously directed American Son. Of this production she says, “This play is not always comfortable. It wasn't meant to be. It asks us to listen. It asks us to feel. It asks us to recognize the struggles and victories of women whose stories deserve to be heard. But it also celebrates survival. It celebrates sisterhood. It celebrates the incredible strength that emerges when people find the courage to keep going.” 
We hope you will join us in celebrating Black women with this singularly beautiful work playwright Ntozake Shange dubbed choreopoetry. It is a limited run as one of Theatre Arlington’s Season Extras and will only play for 2 weekends on the Al and Shalyn Clark Mainstage. 

Group Ticket rates for the show are available for parties of 10 or more.
