Adapted by Lydia Diamond

Directed by Summer L. Williams
October 26 - November 17, 2007

PRESS INFORMATION

 

The only thing that eleven year-old Pecola Breedlove wants is to be loved by her family and classmates, but instead she is subjected to constant ridicule and abuse. Blaming her dark skin, she prays for blue eyes, certain that eyes as blue ‘as Shirley Temple's’ will deliver the affection she desperately craves. A haunting and tragic portrait of a black girl's coming of age in the racially turbulent 1940s. With rich language and bold vision, this powerful adaptation of an American classic explores the crippling toll that a legacy of racism has taken on a community, a family, and an innocent girl.
