REVIEW
“Congratulations must go to Russell Muir and his cast. From Hair To Eternity was an absolute triumph both for the company and for the box office. It was great to see so many new members on the stage.
We welcome you all and look forward to seeing you on the stage again sometime soon. The show was received so well that some of the audience returned the following night to see it again. Indeed one lady came to all three performances!
The use of sixties songs is always a bit of a winner, but Russell had managed to blend them in with the story well. This, as well as the fact it was obvious that the whole cast were having a fantastic time and enjoying themselves immensely was the successful recipe. The press reviews were also very complementary about both the ladies legs and soloists!”
