Dreams come in all colors, shapes and sizes. This 2017 documentary tells the story of local Northwest School of the Arts’ production of The Color Purple, only the second high school in America to stage the Broadway musical version of Alice Walker’s classic novel focusing on African-American women in the 1930s South.
