So I went to see The Color Purple on Broadway on 19 Nov

I know what most of you are thinking....The Color Purple as a musical? No way. Allow me to say yes way....It was fantastic! The primary reason I attended the musical because one of my favorite actresses Renee Elise Goldsberry of One Life to Live and of the Shakesphere in the Park production of Two Gentlemen of Verona was cast to play Nettie. That was the primary reason but I was looking forward to seeing the entire musical. I watched the previews the cast performed on Broadway.com and the Oprah show so I was really looking forward to it.

Let me just say that the play stunned and amazed me. I really enjoyed it.

I gotta say though the Felica P. Fields, who portrayed Sofia, absolutely stole the show. She was wonderful and Sofia's main song "Hell No" had everyone singing right along....

If you are in New York take a trip to 53rd and Broadway, head to the Broadway Theater, and see this show...you will NOT regret it!!

Renee was wonderful as Nettie and I got to meet her after the show so I was happy. Frankly I probably scared her a little bit since I was so excited. Once you get to know me a little better I'm sure I'm going to tell ya'll all about my love for her character, Evangeline, on One Life to Live.

Here's my picture with Renee after the show
