Here’s your first look at the powerhouse that is Sofia played by Ashley Portis .portis in the South Florida premiere of The Color Purple — produced by and directed by Bryan-Keyth Wilson. Bold. Defiant. Unbreakable. A woman who refuses to let the world shrink her spirit.

This production is rooted in truth, legacy, survival, and the audacity of Black joy in the face of pain. From the movement by and to the costumes designed by to the storytelling, every detail is being crafted with intention and soul.

And if this image tells you anything… it’s that Sofia is not backing down. FROM NOBODY!

South Florida… get ready. 💜

Last night’s rehearsal conversation about “The Color Purple (Reprise)” stayed with me long after we left the room. What does it mean to finally notice beauty, joy, and yourself after surviving trauma?

I wrote an essay/ directorial analysis exploring the spiritual and emotional depth of this extraordinary finale.

“Noticing the Color Purple.” — now on Linkedin and Substack.

Here we go!!!!! We put it on its feet tomorrow.

Had to jump on the trend hitting my timeline and show a little Cougar pride. Once blue and gold gets in your blood, it never leaves. You’re never too old to rep your roots, celebrate your hometown, and wear that spirit loud. La Marque forever. 💙💛

Happy Birthday to the legend, August Wilson.

Thank you for putting Black life, history, and humanity at the center of the stage. Thank you for showing us the beauty, struggle, joy, and resilience of our people—not as footnotes, but as the story.

Your words built worlds. Your legacy built us. You gave voice to the unheard and truth to lived experience. As a playwright, you paved the way. As a man, you reminded us to stay rooted in our truth and unafraid to tell it.

You are—and always will be—one of the most influential playwrights in my career and family.

Your work lives in me.
Your legacy lives on.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Wilson.

Writer. Teacher. Mentor. Legacy.
