New York: Hair tribal rock musical revival

5th January 2010

 

NEW YORK SPECIAL: HAIR

Cast members Gavin Creel and Caissie Levy talk to Philip Fisher about the current Broadway revival of Hair (Al Hirschfeld Theatre), the 1967 Tribal Love-Rock Musical, its characters and the politics of the show, and the chance of bringing it to the West End in April.

It’s all about getting in the audience’s faces and involving them – they’re the other character. That communion between the audience and the actors is what makes this production special.
