Ladies Day

Abena Taylor-Smith

LADIES DAY is about a young, black lesbian who spends the day in an Afro-Caribbean hair salon. It’s full of fun, sheen spray, gossip and laughter, but how will she deal with the casual homophobia?

Abena is a freelance writer-director. First published at 16 years old, when she interviewed a lead actor from HBO’s The Wire, she wrote for student media throughout university and her most recent work is featured in Black Ballad and gal-dem magazines. Her favourite topics are film, music, food, gender and sexuality. She hopes to build a career in film, TV, print media and radio.
