Somehow director Rachel Rockwell’s current production of Hair has lost something – maybe her take on the ’68-’69 protect musical was too campy – too much like parody because it never comes off as more than a group of ’60’s dressed folks playing hippies. I never believed that the group was real, that they were indeed flower children.

This long one act dissolves into a pageant of lewd acts, torture and cruelty that occupies us in a most enticing, albeit, dark manner. Although hard to follow at times, Camino Real is strangely intoxicating as we marvel at the cleverness and freshness as the haunting Spanish songs fuel the mood of melancholy.

The folks at TUTA, under the creative, support of artistic director Zeljko Djukic, have allowed the cast of Kirk Anderson, Jaimelyn Gray, Stacie Beth Green, Trey Maclin and Jacqueline Stone to use their ingenuity skills that include quirky physical comedy with unique singing to mount a world premiere showcase production of the Fulton Street Sessions that almost defies description.
