FOR COLORED GIRLS

For Colored Girls who have considered suicide when the Rainbow is Enuf by Ntozake Shange Directed by Patrick Bradford At Leverett House through Dec. 15

MARCIA GREEN, HEATHER JOHNSTON and INGER TUDOR (from left to right) perform in For Colored Girls..., a compelling and touching adaptation of Shange's intimate story of Black women surviving in the modern day. The drama-musical is the first production this year by Black C.A.S.T. and is a stong step forward for Bradford, who has shown great ability and creativity in all of his productions either at the Leverett House Old Library or the Loeb Mainstage. As with most musical productions at Harvard there are some weak voices and weak coreography, but the play comes out ahead.
