SOAP on hair...

SOAP workshops have opened with success - we have been working on the opening of Stravinsky's opera The Wedding where a young bride is distraught because she is forced to have her hair changed from two plaits to one. In Russian culture these two plaits were the symbol of a girl's virginity.

In the workshop we explored events where hair is at the centre of a ritual or tradition. Watch the clip to see a short section of the outcome...




SOAP's next workshop is on Wednesday 13th October - all are welcome to come along, just contact Katherine on 07971845840 or email katherine.soap@gmail.com
