Hair Not There

I was pretty disappointed in this production, while the singing and music were quite good there was no character development, all very two dimensional and the staging and choreography were as flat as the uninspired set. Dont sit on the sides of this 3/4 round stage as almost all the action is played straight down center. For a celebration of the 60s this production is surprisingly short on Soul.

a tangled mess

I found this production of Hair to be competent but uninspired. This plays like a museum piece. The music is well performed and frankly sounded exactly like the Broadway cast album. the characters are cartoons, the show is a time capsule it didnt work. The staging was bland and played down center almost continuously, The Choreography was completely uninspired. Ive seen much more poignant and meaningful productions of this show in summer stock.
