The setting of the play takes place in Jacksons Shack Barbershop, a cluttered business in the inner city, where there are four chairs. In the barbershop there is one whole section of the wall covered with Jet Magazine Beauty of the week Photos.
The play takes the audience on a roller coaster ride through the 70s where stories are told in the shop that brings about joy, laughter, love and sorrow.
