Description

In their final graduating production, the CTDPS presents the 4th Year Actors directed by Anthea Thompson in Sue Pam Grant’s award-winning play, “Curl Up & Dye”.

Set in a dismal hair salon in a dreadful Johannesburg slum, one experiences the toing and froing of the dreary and inevitable power games which poor blacks and whites have to play. This is a world where life is cheap and pride is hard to hold onto.

The play has seen numerous revivals over the years and was re-written in 2013. This is the first Afrikaans translation of the play.
