hot comb | Spelman Dance Theatre Spring 2025 Concert Series

An accumulation of works centering around the connective strands of Black Hair experiences. We explore preparation, styling, and the conversations it sparks from our ancestors' journey toward freedom, to the beauty salons housed within campus dorm rooms igniting movements in pop culture and forms of resistance. Hot Comb brings forth an ethereal world of the press and curl, buss-down wigs, energy-filled locs, and braided twist-out in motion and theme.
