1. Aquarius, Hair the Musical

This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius.

The opening number in our recent student production of Hair, the tribal love rock musical.

There aren't many clips available from the current West End production so you'll just have to go buy some tickets! Check out their awesomely groovy website here: http://hairthemusical.co.uk/

@abstrusMarilyn

Thanks!

The little one on the end? She plays Crissy - check out Frank Mills! :)

don't give up :)

I was on stage in South America in the first perfromances and the toured with Hair, and then had a battled stage life, but a great one never the less...if you put a production like this with little money, you can carry on battling to get ahead :)

Musical theatre is most definitely a love affair thing...so you gotta love it and fight for it :)

I think you guys are talented, carry one and all the best (or like we say*merde* or, like you say* break a leg* :)

@SaritaTaylor

Thanks so much! It must be an amazing show to tour with - even over just one term we had an incredible sense of really belonging to the tribe. We were lucky to have great set, lights and costumes for this show (and the wigs of course! hehe) as well as some really talented people.

We may be science students (mostly) but we do love musical theatre! ;)

@HAIRlondon: you are keeding me, right? so you are SCIENCE students???well, my darling, then you have my devoted admiration :)

I thought you were Performing Arts students!!!!!! well, kudos on you for keeping art alive in you....funnily enough, my dad is a scientist (he worked as a biochemist most his life, incredibly inteligent even if he is a bit mad right now, at 85 LOL)

and he was the one who encouraged me on the art bit....

very well done inded :) if you ever do anything else, let us know,

[HAIRlondon]

@SaritaTaylor Alas, we are indeed massive science geeks, most of us anyway. Our university doesn't do arts subjects! But we manage to indulge our artistic sides anyway. Thanks for your support!

I want this played at my funeral because I'm an AQUARIAN!

@Ktra42 Yeah I understand, but I just think it was executed really badly, and sometimes it's best just to stick with how it was done originally. She's not a bad singer though, this song just isn't right for her at all. I'll look at "easy to be hard" though :)

[Ktra42]

@mattmo2007 Well it's certainly different to the voices usually cast in this role, but it can be quite interesting to do things differently sometimes! She also sings 'easy to be hard' very beautifully, but that's a quite different style song.

[mattmo2007]

I think the main girl's voice is really weak, and not right for the song at all. The set and everything looks really good though!
