Description

Set in the fictional world of Affreakah Amirrorkah, four teenage girls struggle with societal definitions of beauty in If Pretty Hurts, Ugly Must Be a Muhf%cka. The Dunbar Baldwin Hughes Theater Company beautifully executes this interpretation of a Nigerian folktale, seamlessly merging contemporary Black American and traditional West African culture. If Pretty Hurts, Ugly Must Be a Muhf%cka is written by Tori Sampson and directed by Benedict A. Dorsey.

Come watch a show full of laughter, drama, and self-reflection that encourages audiences to ask the question, "Why are we so willing to pay the price of beauty?"
