Prince’s Purple Rain is being adapted for the stage.
The production is based on Albert Magnoli and William Blinn’s 1984 screenplay – which itself was tied into Prince’s studio album of the same name. Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, known for their recent Broadway work on Appropriate, will write the book, with Lileana Blain-Cruz (Skin of Our Teeth) is taking on the role of director.
