This is truly a sad day theatre fans. Hair, one of last season's most loved and honored shows,will play it's final performance at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre on June27.Those of you who read my blogs know that the current Broadway production of Hair was one of the biggest surprises that I have ever experienced in the theatre. Walking in I never expected to love it as much as I did or be as moved as I was. Now going into see the show I knew the story and a few of the songs but that was about it. Never in a million years did I expect that Hair would become one of my favorite shows but it did.
It's funny but everytime I suggest the show to people on the phone their response is usually, "Oh I saw it years ago" or "I saw a production of it at my local theater back home." To that I say, "Big freakin' deal!" Trust me when I say that you have never seen a production of Hair like this one. I don't care who you are. It is an amazing show and it certainly deserves a longer run than 15 months. Either way there is no denying it's power and the fact that it has had on a generations for over forty years. That will never change. That is why Hair will never die.
