This is a series of poetic monologues accompanied by dance movements and music, a form Shange coined as choreopoem. The play tells the stories of seven women who have suffered oppression in a racist and sexist society.
As a choreopoem, there are a series of 20 separate poems choreographed to music that weaves inter-connected stories of love, empowerment, struggle and loss into a representation of sisterhood. Cast consists of seven nameless women only identified by the colors they are assigned. They are the lady in red, lady in orange, lady in yellow, lady in green, lady in blue, lady in brown, and lady in purple. Subjects from rape, abandonment, abortion and domestic violence are tackled.
