Chicago Radio Legends Perform Together
I am deficient of superlatives as I attempt
to demonstrate a verbal depiction of one of the most rare events in Chicago
history. This may be the first time ever that not one; not two, but three divas,
legends and icons of Chicago radio will perform together on stage in the classic
production of “For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When The
Rainbow is Enuf”. Radio V103’s Bonnie DeShong &Troi Tyler and
WGCR.FM web-satellite radio’s LaDonna Tittle will make history when they
step on stage together at Kennedy
King College, Katherine Dunham Theater December 5th
and 6th at 8:00PM and the 7th at 6:00PM. The twist in the plot is that
they are now Colored women, mature and confident. We call the production “Colored
Girls Revisited”.
The cast also includes veteran actresses Cynthia Maddox (of Barbershop 2 &
One Week), Yatta Carter, Darnice Crump, Comedian Paulette Flowers and a magnificent
alternate cast member, Ms. Deborah Crable (of Ebony Jet Showcase). Colored Girls...
is Directed by L.C. Satterfield and Produced by Attorney Ernesto D. Borges Jr.
From its inception in 1974 to its critical
success on Broadway, this work has excited and inspired audiences all over the
country. "For Colored Girls..." is a group of 20 poems for seven actors
on the power of black women to survive in the face of despair and pain. This
passionate and fearless rendition of author Ntozake
Shange, reveals what it means to be of color and female in the 21st century.
Staring Chicago radio personalities V103
102.7 FM's Bonnie DeShong and Troi Tyler and WGCR.FM web-satellite radio’s
La Donna Tittle, and local talents Cynthia Maddox (Barber Shop 2 and One
Week) and Paulette Flowers this vivid and powerful play resonates with
unusual beauty in its fierce message to the world.
