I attended this show during the first week it was in San Francisco. It was absolutely terrific!

It runs through Dec. 9 in San Francisco.

Here's a bit about the touring cast:

Jeannette Bayardelle who joined the tour from the Broadway production, as the lead character Celie, along with fellow Broadway cast-mate Felicia P. Fields. Fields originated the role of Sofia, for which she received a Tony Award nomination. Michelle Williams, former member of best-selling female R&B group Destiny's Child, appears in the role of Shug Avery. Celie's sister Nettie is played by local SF Bay Area performer LaToya London of "American Idol" fame.
