NEW! In the Caribbean, "batty" is the word for buttocks. Using techniques honed through the Hair Party effort, Urban Bush Women has expanded its civic dialogue practice to discuss positive body images. Batty Parties combine discussion, improvisation, audience participation, dialogue and performance excerpts from the critically-acclaimed "Batty Moves," an homage to the female form.
Coming Soon! Joy of Living Parties . . .
