The story consists seven nameless African-American women who are only identified by the colours they wore.

The play features actresses like Carol King, Osas Ighodaro, Matilda Obaseki ,Oreka Godis, Diana Yekinni and Ade Laoye.

In her remarks, Osas said, “To be an artistic voice today and directly or indirectly touching base with past and current issues concerning all women and the girl-child means the world to me.”
