A young woman who moves down South to live with her aunt is given a lesson in “hat-titude” in this toe-tapping musical. From fur hats to flowered hats, pillboxes to turbans, to hats for work and hats for church, there is a hat for every occassion, and a cultural and historical significance to them as well as “Mother Shaw” and her “hat queens” share in their stories. This soul-stirring celebration demonstrates the handing down of culture from one generation to the next and celebrates the refuge, equality and healing that occurs in this place of spirituality.
Goodman Theatre is at 170 N. Dearborn Street Chicago 60601, Chicago, IL.
