The Lexus Broadway Series at the Winspear kicks off its new season around Dallas Pride with the local premiere of the recent B’way revival of the sexually liberated hippie musical Hair, which on Broadway starred out actor Gavin Creel (who appeared last year at the Black Tie Dinner here). Individual tickets go on sale today at 10 a.m. Opening night is always fun, but I might suggestion getting seats for the second-week Tuesday performance. That’s the day the Series has selected as, for want of a better word, “gay night” at the Winspear, with s special pre-show talk and reception. I’ll tell you more about that later…
And just how gay is this 42 year old show? Pretty damn gay. In fact, last week after New York officially began permitting same-sex marriage, the stage of the Broadway production of Hair was host to three ceremonies. Don’t expect those on the floor of the Winspear, though….
