Billed as The American Tribal Love-Rock Musical, this production seems to have that ultra-hopeful vibe coming from The States and travelling across the pond back in November 2008 when Obama was making his way to office and the world was set to change.

It's been around in one form or another since the 1960's when it captured the sexual, counter-culture revolution and caused controversy over its depiction of illegal drug use and sexuality. Its music rang true with a generation and many of the songs became anthems to Anti-Vietnam War protests.

It follows the story of the 'tribe', a group of politically active, shaggy haired optimists living bohemian in New York City as they try to balance their loves, relationships and politics with societal conventions and the expectations of conservative parents.

The entire Broadway cast is relocating to the West End to bring you some classics including I Got Life and Let The Sunshine In. Click here to read the Broadway reviews of Hair.
