I would LOVE to see the color purple. I went and saw Oprah live in Chicago once and it was the Color Purple special episode so I got to see a few scenes live there. I was hoping the giveaway was going to be Broadway tickets and a trip to New York, but it wasn't. We all got The Color Purple book and a CD.
