Years on, writer Ntozake Shanges 1975 play is still as poignant and harrowing as ever. The story began as a series of poetic monologues that highlighted and dissected women battling through oppression in a racist and sexist world.

The play that began as twenty poems choreographed to music made its stage debut in California in 1974 at Joseph Papps Public Theater and then went to Broadway, where it was an immediate success and received an Obie Award.

In 1977, the play won several awards including a Theatre World Award, a Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Play and a Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Lighting Design.
