After living through the Vietnam war, the anti-war protests, the Kent State shootings, etc., seeing HAIR again last night at the intimate BLANK CANVAS THEATRE, was an entirely awesome, mind-blowing, groovy experience. This theaters steller performance of HAIR was extremely powerful. Every single actor, without exception, portrayed depth as an individual member of the tribe. Every single actor, without exception, sung the meaning and message of their songs with powerful, passionate voices. The entire production was brilliantly directed by Patrick Ciamacco, and Jessie Cope Miller can be proud of the well-executed choreography of a very large cast in a very small space. The musicians blended perfectly with the singers, and the costumes were right on, baby. (Berger really knows how to work his fringe lol) The back wall projections of the eras painful history added yet another dimension to the staging. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL ON A FANTASTIC PRODUCTION! Opening night was a COMPLETE SELL-OUT, and I would venture a guess, the rest of the run through September 13 will be too, so I recommend you reserve your tickets for this one. Tickets are reasonable, parking is free, and they serve wine, beer and pop. Visit BlankCanvasTheatre for tickets & information. One friendly suggestion...dress very lightly...it can get quite warm in there with wall-to-wall people and all those enthusiastic, hot-blooded hippies running around.
