Plot[]
The play takes place in the fictional Twister City, where the four colors (red, yellow, blue, green) are pitted against each other in the color wars. The play focuses on Left Hand on Blue (played by Harriet Tubman) and her love triangle with her two love interests, Right Hand on Red (played by JFK) and Left Foot on Green (played by Kublai Khan), who has a crush on her.
