    Add Review/Comment

    A musical play in which hats become a springboard for a young black woman who has come down South to stay with her aunt after her brother is killed in Brooklyn. The characters use hats to tell tales concerning everything from the etiquette to their historical and contemporary social functioning. There is a hat for every occasion, from flirting to churchgoing. The tradition of hats is traced back to African rituals and forward to the New Testament and current fashion. Some rap but predominantly gospel music and dance underscore and support the narratives.
