Stephen Hues  Choreographer

Hair Reviews

"... really perfect timing is displayed by the brilliant, immaculately prepared members of the ensemble cast, who never sing an off note or set a foot wrong throughout a show that contains 46 musical numbers.       Under the sure hand of musical director Steve Hunter, the score sounds consistently exhilarating. Meanwhile, the engaging, high-speed choreography of Stephen Hues brings cheers from the audience. (Hues and Prior previously collaborated on the multimedia show Ramayana 2K). And just when you think you've seen and heard it all, there comes the finale, "Let the Sunshine In," which builds from a bitter lament into an anthem of hope." Theater Mania, by Richard Costello 

"...Hair grabs you by way of its uncompromising stance against war, racism and bigotry. like the bad acid trip that frames the mise en scenes, the play takes you on a little musical voyage in cultural studies by way of a minstel show that describes Claude's (Jamie McKnight) final descent into hell and his death in Vietnam inexorably leading toward the show's final laudation of life in a better world than this embodied in the anthemic Let the Sunshine In. If, by this time, you remain unmoved by this production, I suggest that your heart is a lump of coal and that your soul is dead, dead, dead." Aisle Say Toronto, Robin Breon

"The CanStage production of HAIR is like a psychedelic trip of which there's no coming down. It has all the right moves and attitude blowing through 48 musical numbers to relive the revolution." Toronto Stage.com

"You'll want to groove right along with the chracters from HAIR." Toronto Getaway

"HAIR showed me sexually suggestive acrobatics and perfectly timed dance"    Shane Gleason, The Cauldron Theater Critic

"...the choreography is entertaining, and the tribal energy is seductive. Director Robet Prior and choreographer Stephen Hues understand they are dealing with a period piece and go for the max in Sixties' sensibilities." Paula Citron on the Arts, Classical 96.3
