At The Vaults theatre in London lives a production of the award-winning musical, ‘Hair’.


For those not in the know, ‘Hair’ (first performed 50 years ago) follows a group of drug-fuelled hippies as they protest against war and demand peace with a message which is still crucial today.


Its comments on societies impression of young people along with drug taking and nudity has ensured that ‘Hair’ has always been seen as one of the shows that pushes the boundaries, and this production is no different.

However, here’s where it gets a bit awkward.

James Gilmore saw the new production of ‘Hair’ (an IMMERSIVE production, to be noted) with his parents despite warning that half way through the production the entire cast get naked on stage.


Entirely naked. No underwear. No socks. Fully naked. In an IMMERSIVE production. With his parents.


On his Friday radio show, James Gilmore spoke about how he totally wasn’t ready for this experience – but also how great the show is. It really is pretty good.


Broadcasted exclusively worldwide on W!ZARD Radio Station.
