HAIR~~~RAISING!!!
My parents adored the music from the original Broadway production and went to experience it in San Francisco in the late '60's and it transformed their lives. I grew-up on the soundtrack of HAIR, and I
finally had the opportunity to experience it for myself in Reno, Nevada. The production was beyond amazing...the music stupendous, the actors/singers/musicians extraordinary, and I really felt my parent's
spirits with me (both are in the "next dimension" now). I have seen more than a few productions on Broadway and in London's West End, and I rate this production amongst this category of incredible MUST
SEE shows ever produced for the stage. I left the theatre feeling transformed and HAPPY. A truly natural HIGH, LOL!!! All good!!! ... Read more

"Hair" is the ultimate theatrical experience!
"Hair" is the only show that I’ve ever seen that felt like an experience. The cast aka The Tribe is excellent, the production is fantastic and the songs sound better then ever. The shows themes (Sex, War, Drugs, Race) are as relevant today as they were forty years ago. The best part is the bond that the Tribe forms with the audience. It resonates with everyone long after they’ve left the theater. I urge all theatergoers to order tickets, participate in the show and dance in the finale. You will never forget the "Hair" experience. ... Read more

Simply Amazing
Hair is like no other musical. Its content is highly interactive, and extremely relevent to society today. The sociopolitical scheme as well as the intertwining of the personal lives of the characters is done in a sublime fashion. The cast is beyond talented; it seems as though they are the hippies of Hair while watching it. They encourage audience members to dance on stage at the end of the show, which was mind-blowing. The entire aura of the theatre feels free and lucid. While not particularly a child's play, it is indeed ingenius. ... Read more
