Hot Brown Honey
Hot Brown Honey turns up the heat, delivering lashings of sass and a hot pinch of empowerment in the smash-hit cabaret show that’s taken Edinburgh Festival Fringe by storm.
Packing a potent punch with hip hop politics, the Honeys will make you laugh until you cry, clap until your hands bleed and shake every part of what your mama gave you. This posse of phenomenal women defiantly smash stereotypes, remix the system and dare to celebrate our similarities and differences in an explosion of colour, culture and controversy.
Hot Brown Honey is unapologetically fierce, serving up an audacious platter of dance, poetry, comedy, circus, striptease and song. With set, lighting, music and costume to rival Beyoncé at Madison Square Garden, it’s political theatre like you’ve never seen it before.
Become one with the hive - fighting the power never tasted so sweet!
The HBH team is Kim 'Busty Beatz' Bowers, Lisa Fa'alafi, Materharere Hope 'Hope One' Haami, Juanita Duncan, Ofa Fotu and Crystal Stacey.

“The honeys are fun and fabulously defiant” Crikey AUS
“It’s phenomenal – sexy, foot-stomping fun and radical consciousness-raising all at the same time.” ★★★★★ The Scotsman
It was an amazing performance. Never seen anythung like it before. Super funny yet never lost their story and message. I will definitly go again and I urge anyone else thinking about going to go as well. Definitely worth it.
The show was full of talent, there was a lot of emotional parts, funny parts and so politically incorrect parts. I loved it all as it fit with my beliefs. I can’t say there was no controversy but I was there for it. Sometimes speaking your truth is liberating and it’s nice to see some women from all over the world share the same one. God bless!
Energizing, empowering and fun! These ladies are extremely talented - a must see show to help celebrate self-care and rise of the feminine
