Makin’ Cake
“Makin’ Cake” is more than a performance– it’s an experience! Through powerful storytelling, Dasha Kelly Hamilton takes the stage to slice into history, unpacking race, class, and culture in a way that’s as thought-provoking as it is engaging.
For most of human history, baking required patience, resources … and luck. Ingredients were scarce and expensive; chemistry was fickle; and the chain of procedures required days. When our nation began experiencing abundance for the first time, most Americans couldn’t afford basic cake ingredients.
This event includes delicious conversation after the show and cake for all.
