HAIR
Lazer it, tweeze it, wax it, leave it - Lady Business’ debut show exposes the
sexualisation and stigmas surrounding hair, covering everything from what
grows on your head, all the way down to what you wish didn’t grow on your
toes!
Hair plays a huge part in sculpting female identity, often defining the way women are seen in the world, whether intended or not. But why is it that some hair on our bodies is celebrated and the rest has to be plucked out of sight?
HAIR takes to the stage to tackle the taboos of female fur. The artists draw upon their personal relationships with hair, as well as stories gathered from the community, giving voice to a diverse range of female experiences and hair stories.
A powerful, high-energy mix of physical theatre, poetry and storytelling, watch three women wrestle with, wax off, and wig out over their hair. Weaves will fly, ponytails will whip and braids will be let loose.
Come and join the HAIR rebellion. Grab your scissors… it’s Fringe season!
