The iconic rock musical Hair is back in a bold new Brazilian production directed by Charles Möeller and Claudio Botelho.

With a cast of 30 led by Rodrigo Simas and Eduardo Borelli, this vibrant staging fuses rock, poetry, and raw emotion to explore freedom, identity, and protest in a turbulent era. Nearly six decades after its debut, Hair still pulses with youthful defiance and idealism, inviting audiences to sing, reflect, and feel the rhythm of a revolution that never truly ended.

Con l'avvicinarsi delle feste natalizie in tutto il mondo si rispolverano le varie versioni della celebre novella CANTO DI NATALE di Charles Dickens, a tutti i livelli e in tutte le sue forme: d'altra parte è l'unico periodo dell'anno in cui ha senso rappresentarla. Non tutte le versioni hanno però lo stesso peso e lo stesso valore; in ognuna c'è qualcosa che manca all'altra e viceversa. Questa versione dell'opera scritta dal Maestro Simone Martino già alcuni anni fa, viene presentata in forma concerto dimostrando varie pecche dal punto di vista dell'allestimento, della gestione degli spazi e nella necessità di dover presentare al pubblico una versione ridotta rispetto alla stesura originale: nonostante questo l'atmosfera che si è creata nel piccolo Teatro degli Eroi è stata quasi magica. E non è solo per la magia del Natale.
