Latest Press Release 990506
Michael Butler, the original Broadway producer of the Musical Masterpiece
"HAIR", announced today that, in cooperation with the authors James Rado
and Galt MacDermot the theatrical revival of "HAIR" will be moved to open
in the spring of 2001. The play is currently scheduled to be presented
in a Theatrical Festival format, which will feature an atmosphere of
colorful tents and street scenes reminiscent of the 60's.
This strategic move is designed to make way for a special presentation
to launch in the spring of 2000. According to plan, this should pave the
way for a very long run of "HAIR" in its original theatrical form.
Michael Butler comments, "In order for us to insure a lengthy run of the
play, we want to introduce a new generation to the musical aspects of the
show. This environment will only serve to enhance the play version and
will bridge the generation gap between the older audience who loved the
show and the younger kids".
Mr. Butler will now commence production on another play to open in the
spring of 2000 in The Tribe Theater Festival.
