Trey Anthony’s ‘Da Kink in My Hair’ starring Melanie Fiona, Terry J. Vaughn & Angie Stone Debuts in Atlanta

Trey Anthony is excited to debut her four-time NAACP Award-winning stage play, ‘da Kink in My Hair in Atlanta Sept. 6 – 8 at the Cobb Energy Performance Arts Centre. Starring two-time Grammy Award-winning R&B artist Melanie Fiona, Angie Stone of “R&B Divas” and renown actress Terri Vaughn, ‘da Kink in My Hair is an emotionally charged stage play which gives voice to eight black women who tell their unforgettable stories of love, hope, survival and redemption. ‘da Kink in My Hair is produced by Trey Anthony Studios and is sponsored in part by Tropical Roots and 4 Naturals.

Set in Toronto at a Caribbean hair salon, ‘da Kink in My Hair revolves around Novelette, a West Indian hair stylist who serves as a confidant for each character who struggles through everyday trials and tribulations; many which are familiar to most black women. From a mother losing a child to gun violence, to a career-driven woman who lacks love in her personal life, executive producer, Trey Anthony uses ‘da Kink in My Hair as a platform to masterfully blend real life stories of laughter, tears, revelation and inspiration.

“‘da Kink in my Hair” was nominated four times by the Dora Mavor Moore Awards – the Canadian awards equivalent to the Tony’s – in 2003 and has received critical acclaim and broken box office records since its debut. The play is also the recipient of four NAACP Theatre awards and was the first Canadian play to be produced at the Princess of Wales Theatre, Canada’s largest commercial theatre. It was named one of the top 10 plays in Canada’s theatrical history. “‘da Kink in My Hair” has been seen in California, London, England and made its New York debut at Tisch School for the Arts at New York University in October 2010.
