For Colored Girls was a play put on by Western Michigan students. The play was about a number of girls and their experiences in life. The play started off pretty upbeat. The girls were acting as if they were children. They were laughing and playing games like ring around the rosie. Then the play started to get serious as one of the girls starting acting like a young women. She was telling the younger girls about her life. Her experiences were not positive. She spoke about her negative experiences as a woman in society. She spoke about her problems with men specifically. Then the rest of the girls read monologues as women who experienced traumatic things such as rape, domestic violence and other struggles. I feel like going to see this show was beneficial.
