Since I didn’t watch the “Real Housewives of ATL” I missed the trailer, but I thought I’d share it with others who may have missed it.  Structurally, For Colored Girls is a series of 20 poems, collectively called a “choreopoem.” It is performed by a cast of seven women characters, each of whom is known only by a color: “Lady in Yellow,” “Lady in Purple,” etc. The poems deal with love, abandonment, rape, and abortion, embodied by each woman’s story, it’s based  on Ntozake Shange’s award-winning 1975 play .  It has been nominated for Tony Awards as a Broadway play and won several other awards.  With the cast including Janet Jackson, Whoopi Goldberg, Thandie Newton just to name a few I’m excited to see what Tyler Perry does with this.  I’m also excited to see Jurnee Smollett…she did her thing in Eve’s Bayou.  BTW whatever happened to Meagan Goode? Just curious ENJOY!
