As we eagerly look forward to a return to live performance in the real world it is important to acknowledge and continue to enjoy the excellent, innovative productions that the creative community are delivering.
HOME Manchester commission, Don’t Touch My Hair is a five-minute flashback to one of the finest moments from Hot Brown Honey, the extraordinary stage show created by director Lisa Fa’alafi and musical director Kim ‘Busty Beatz’ Bowers, blending together clips from performances across the world to create a defiant musical blast that’s equal parts social activism and earworm and entirely what the world needs right now.
In pre-Covid times, Hot Brown Honey took the world by storm. Coming straight out of stolen land Australia, this extraordinary production spun tradition on its head going above and beyond to challenge boundaries and embrace resilience. The show smashed stereotypes in an unapologetic celebration of our similarities and differences.

Tickets are available as ‘Pay What You Can’ – the suggested price for this event is £5 but there are a range of ticket prices so you can choose what you can afford from the options, including £0, as we want as many people as possible to access our Homemakers commissions.
They’ve also included a higher option for anyone who wants to take the opportunity to make a larger donation to our artists and organisations. How much you choose to pay is completely up to you, and every audience member will receive exactly the same content and experience.
All the money raised from ticket sales for this event will be split evenly with 50% going directly to the artist and 50% to HOME’s response fund to allow HOME to continue to support future artists and commissions.
