Hurrey-UP Stage and FilmWorks 

presents... 

Nappy Journeys 

at the 

National Black Theatre Festival 2009! 

in

Winston-Salem, NC

Hurrey-UP’s solo performance production, Nappy Journeys, written, directed, and performed by Ayinde Hurrey, focuses on the artistic expression and amazing phenomenon of African-American hair.  First performed in 1997, Nappy Journeys is a wild ride with four of Hurrey’s very animated characters.  Chosen as one of the 29 main stage productions at this year's National Black Theatre Festival, Hurrey-UP plans to represent Pensacola, Florida at this week-long celebration of culture in a major way!  With his audience participatory style of performance, Hurrey’s unique journey will entertain, educate, and inspire its audiences.

Hurrey has performed his hilarious and honest  piece for appreciative and packed audiences at the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center, various colleges and universities, and is now on his way to Winston-Salem, North Carolina for the National Black Theatre Festival 2009!  

"One of my students went to see your show three times!  She raved about the energy and intellingence that your show has...I have seen the show twice and have enjoyed it both times very much."  

~Kathryn Spicer, Instructor / Wayne Community College

"There are a lot of issues in our culture that are taboo to talk about.  I admire anyone who addresses them." 

 ~Shawn Smiley, Tampa Florida

"Ayinde brought a tight, dynamic show to Tampa and rocked the house three nights in a row to fully appreciative audiences...I personally laughed to the point of tears and I see a lot of shows being in the position that I am." 

~David M. Jenkins, Artistic Director/The Jobsite Theatre / Tampa, FL
