Based on the short story “The Ugliest Pilgrim” by Doris Betts
Los Angeles Premiere!

Directed by Richard Israel

Musical Direction by Alby Potts
Choreographed by Shauna Markey

MTG is excited to present the Los Angeles premiere of this spellbinding 1997 gem by Jeanine Tesori (THOROUGHLY
MODERN MILLIE; CAROLINE, OR CHANGE). Developed at
New York’s Playwrights Horizons Theater, VIOLET covers
the emotional road trip of a scarred young woman - and two handsome soldiers - traveling towards a T.V. preacher who
supposedly will make her beautiful. The score is clever and
heartfelt, with gospel, R&B and country influences.
