About JAJA'S AFRICAN HAIR BRAIDING
This dazzling world premiere welcomes you into Jaja’s bustling hair braiding salon in Harlem where every day, a lively and eclectic group of West African immigrant hair braiders are creating masterpieces on the heads of neighborhood women. During one sweltering summer day, love will blossom, dreams will flourish and secrets will be revealed. The uncertainty of their circumstances simmers below the surface of their lives and when it boils over, it forces this tight-knit community to confront what it means to be an outsider on the edge of the place they call home.
This extraordinary new play is by the award winning Ghanaian-American playwright Jocelyn Bioh ( School Girls; Or, The African Mean Girls Play) and is directed by Obie winner Whitney White ( Our Dear Dead Drug Lord).
