Hair - The American Tribal Love-Rock Musical

Let the sunshine in... HAIR - The Musical

Music: Galt MacDermont
Book & Text: Gerome Ragni / James Rado
The original production took place in New York with Michael Butler as Director

Esoteric, insence sticks, LSD and free love. These are the crucial atrributes of the Hippies.

In HAIR the Hippiemovement of 1968 is looking for a new feel for life. A society away from war, racial segregation and authority. An era in the sign of „Aquarius“.

Make love, not war and of course with LIVE ROCK Band.

In the center of the story is Claude H. Bukowski, coming from a patriotic-civil backround and a group of Hippies around George Berger and his friends. Claude who comes to New York because of his military draft, gets more and more into a conflict within himself because of the experinces he makes by meeting Berger and Sheila, a girl coming from a conservative background. Will he ignore his new found pacifistic ideals or go to Vietnam to serve his country, killing people and even risking his own life? Or will he refuse his service and having to go to prison and be ostracised by society?

Good morning starshine – A musical epic

The Musical HAIR is until today a milestone in Musical Theatre. The original for HAIR is by Gerome Ragni and James Rado, who meat when both were regular actors. Through the provocation of the modern theatre at the time and the riots of the protest-movement, a text formed as symbiosis of hard , reproachful lines and peaceful, soft poetry. This harmony of the two contrasts gives an even more powerful meaning of the contence.

After many off-Broadway Shows – the first was in 1966, the creators of HAIR worked together with Galt MacDermot on an musical production of it. The former church-musician and organist was able to create a fantastic symbiosis of rhythmn, harmonies and instruments. Bertrand Castelli joined as director. He was leader of several peace marches and ended up quiet often, behind bars. He managed to give HAIR the radical pacifistic soul and made it into an extraordnary experience.

Where do I go - HAIR over the world

1966 was the premiere of the Off-Broadway production. From 1968 HAIR was played almost non-stop on Broadway and achieved worldwide success. In 1979 HAIR was turned into a movie. The musical film version has been sold millionfold up until today.

Conclusion

We have in HAIR a brilliant show consisting of dance, music and colourful costumes and get the chance to experience an entertaining yet dramatic lesson of history. You can feel the fear  but at the same time the hope of the people, for a better future. Profound lyriks, breathtaking songs and choreographies leave HAIR to be an experience, you will never forget. It will bring back the youth for a long time.
