1969
- 1971. The Toronto Production of HAIR an American Love Rock Musical
came to town.
Here's
a view of what impact HAIR the Musical Production had on shaping
and influencing Toronto, Canada, the Mega City that boast's 182
different language's, making it one of the most diverse cultures
on the planet. With a City Hall Building shaped like a flying
saucer, and the tallest free standing building, you'll find no
Igloo's or Polar Bears here but ton's of the most amazing nature
outside of the big city. And there is only one toll road in the
entire country.
From
Wayne St. John's perspective:
Once
there was a play that took the world by storm. I'm talking about
HAIR and many HAIR production's were
going on in many countries and Cities simultaneously. People who
never thought about going to a Musical in the legitimate theater
came out in droves. One night at the Royal Alexandria theater
in Toronto, I saw the two front rows fill up with about one hundred
and fifty Nuns and Priests all glued to their seats till the very
end and they clapped vigorously!.
HAIR
was kinda' like Shakespeare's first play, his play apparently
...didn't fly. Probably because there was no nude scene. hah!
HAIR with it's 30 member cast was similar in that it had many
stories and topic's related and unrelated all rolled into one,
with clever musical segue's to clever choreography, staging and
props, which numbered over 300, a first in itself!
Canadian
composer Galt MacDermot's musical touch and collaboration with
all the song's was magical, we the Mississauga Tribe got to work
with him and the writers, James Rado and Jerry Ragney in person.
Inside the 1300 plus seat Royal Alex was a quarter of a million
dollars in lighting and a 120 foot rope to swing from the first
balcony on to the stage. The central story all swirling around
a love story within a tribe and the loss of a young man's life
to the useless Viet nam war that was despised and scorned throughout
the script. The reality is that the total loss of lives of North
American's and Puerto Rican's in that war now stands at, 250 thousand
young men and women, more than half of the total that served.
HAIR showed the anarchist side as
boldly as any show dared at the time.
HAIR
was a little over three hours long, with ten minute standing ovations
every night, then finally the cast would invite the audience up
on stage having a winding down effect while they talked to audience
members (as depicted above on opening night) and that was an ad-lib
event every night lasting another fifteen minutes. It was great
fun. HAIR
ran a little more than a year in Toronto. At that time and for
many years after, it broke all attendance records as a musical
play. Here is a second
reunion of the Toronto Cast twenty years later. This show
was held at the Ryerson Theater in 1986 it was a concert in tribute
to Richard Pachenko who was the Assistant Stage Director of HAIR
1969-1971. There's more to this story and more pictures and memorabilia
will be added to this site.....so I'll be back.
Peace,
Wayne
St. John

Wayne's Play Envision's
a future of Peace.
Keep
your head to the sky! Coming soon after the paradigm shift, and
1000 years of peace, but just before first E T contact, there
will be a leveling of the playing field, as mother earth continues
to cleanse herself, the world will shake, tremble and change.
The water level will rise all around the planet. The USA will
go bankrupt and won't be able to afford the war in Iraq and the
occupation of 60 countries. Civil unrest in the USA will erupt
over Constitutional rights as people recognize the Nazi run USA.
The Patriot act will die but not before many rights of the people
are taken away. The
banking system will change. All
nuclear plants and bombs will be rendered harmless and removed.
The Illuminati will disappear, order will be restored and St.
Germain, his guides, among others will be interventionist
who will raise our consciousness as to where our awareness reaches
a critical mass then we'll experience peace in the land. Our space
brothers & sisters will restore the ecosystems and we will
be introduced to new safer fuel, new healing technologies and
we will join a larger family of man. We can then look forward
to inching closer to a Class 1 civilization. Wayne St. John
E
T First Contact Is Not That Far Away
Before First contact, we'll naturally
be in Pre First Contact mode which is exactly where we are at
this time, in this cycle of human history of this planet, third
from the sun. Pre first contact is years in the planning. I welcome
this International reverence, the multitude of Star Nations people
that are here now in greater numbers more than anyone could imagine.
Intervention, first contact and world peace will be synonymous.
Star Nation's People
While all the wars carry on
While the armies of our fighting children die
While the tragedy in history is written deliberately
While those leaders of 13 bloodlines continue to show
apathy
A master plan of hope is unfolding
Unbeknownst to but a very few
A benevolent light is extending it reach over the Dark
forces
It drowns out the dark forces that rule at this time
As the dark are circumvented by the light
Their eradication comes in plain view with indictments
We can and will be delivered from evil
And begin our life anew
First Contact is in the final stages of preparation
First Contact in the highest order is coming soon
First contact will in unfold in the nick of time
At First contact we'll meet our space brethren
Who will know us through and through as they've studied
us
As we go kicking and screaming into the future of surprise!
We will finally view all the things we couldn't see
We will marvel at their technology
That they will give to us for free
But not without our promise of being more responsible
We could not proceed in good conscience without giving
thanks
We must consider ascending from within as the higher
self is the key.
True compassion is the only reaction, so thankful will
we be
For no more war's will kill countryman, as first contact
equals stability
No more starvation, no more poverty, no more anarchy,
no monetary instability, no more Annunaki
After first contact we will soon be on our way
For up to now after thousands of years the Illuminati
had their way
First contact will put an end to brutal atheistic dialectical
materialism, it will free us from a prison of a thousand lies
And a new understanding and regard for the law of one,
where we will take our seat with the Galactic Federation
Joining a variety of our space brothers and sisters in
a universal kind of home as we go kicking and screaming into the
Cosmos.
