That's right theatre fans.You only have five more chances to see the Tony nominated cast of Hair. Now don't worry the show is not closing. Instead the entire Broadway company is crossing the pond to open the show in London on April 1. It's new cast headed by American Idol alums Diana DeGarmo and Ace Young are set to begin performances at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre on March 9.
I have to tell you that this production of Hair was one of the biggest surprises for me. Going in I knew a few of the songs and had heard good things but I expected it to be a little dated. It does take place in the 1960's after all. Once again I was wrong.The show is just as relevant as it was when it first opened over forty years ago. Probably even more now with all things that are going on in the world. It is a must see.
Now for those of you who may be turned off by the nudity let me stop you right now. It is very brief. Sure it's not one of those "blink and you miss it" moments but it is over pretty quickly. So if you are one of those people who saw it in the 60's or you are like me who had never seen it before it is a great production worth seeing. I suggest seeing it a couple times actually. Get your tickets to see Hair on Broadway and now in London. It is what theatre is all about.
