The Head Wrap Diaries is TOURING!
Hair – worn long, worn short, worn wavy or in braids – is the subject of The Head Wrap Diaries, a funny and uplifting dance theatre show by London based dance company Uchenna Dance. The show is set in a hair salon and is about people, and their ongoing relationship with hair.
Blending club styles House, Waacking and Vogue with African and Contemporary Dance, with a good dose of humour and a sizzling soundtrack of sounds, The Head Wrap Diaries explores femininity, beauty, culture, sisterhood and most importantly; HAIR.
Audience members are welcomed by stylists Linda and Riyah who will take you on a hair journey that will have you laughing out loud, thinking about your own (and everyone else’s!) hair while you learn a thing or two about afro hair, straight from the hairdresser’s chair.
For The Curious
Pre-show installation experience designed by students from Central Saint Martins in collaboration with Vicki Igbokwe.
