Zoom in

Kapsalon de Musical is a new Dutch-language musical set in an Afro hair salon: a place where stories, music and generations come together.

When Quin (21) inherits her late father's hair salon and considers selling it, she discovers that her true legacy is not in stones or money, but in the community that comes together there. Between mirrors, hair dryers and barber chairs, a rhythmic story unfolds about grief, identity and the universal desire to be loved. The performance moves between lived-in pain and euphoric joy, between loss and resilience.

With musical symphonies complemented by a broad mix of influences such as afrobeats, hip-hop, gospel, kaseko and contemporary pop culture, Hair Salon the Musical stands out.
