First performed in Berkeley, California in 1974,
Ntozake Shange’s staged poem For Colored Girls
Who Have Considered Suicide When the
Rainbow Is Enuf played at the Joseph Papp
Public Theatre before opening on Broadway in
1976. The collection of poems performed by
women of color--each identified by the hue of her
clothes--creates a unified statement about being
a woman of color, being alive, and being an
American. The work’s tales of love, violence,
abortion, rape, and healing are as searing and
relevant today as they were thirty years ago.
