- Full Price:

In Jules Massenet's Werther, the young poet Werther has fallen desperately in love with the beautiful Charlotte. When he discovers that she is honor-bound to marry Albert, he tries to stay away, but his passion draws him back to her. Finally, Werther decides the only way he can find peace is through death. The performance by Washington National Opera features Italian tenor Francesco Meli in his company debut in the title role and mezzo-soprano Sonia Ganassi as Charlotte. The two performers recently sang the same roles together in Parma, Italy. Chris Alexander directs and Emmanuel Villaume conducts. Learn More

Great show! Great acting, singing! Good decision for me to leave my 9 year old at home. Show for adults only, confirmed. Fantastic seats, was in row NN - Orchestra. Had trouble hearing what we being said by actors sometimes, had same problem with a Mary Poppins show at K. Center. Washington Post article noted same issue hearing voices at times. At the end of the show the audience is encourage to come dance for final # on the stage, so don’t be shy. Throughout show actors come out into audience and want to touch your HAIR!Written on Nov 01 2010

This show, which seemed so relevant and daring in 1967 (when I was 20 and protesting the war), now seems outdated and a bit boring. We had good seats in row CC, but still couldn't understand much that was said or sung on stage, despite the amplification. The actors never really projected the strong emotions of the era. And when one of the older characters urged a tribe member to "get a job," I found myself agreeing. Am I a dinosaur, or has this show lost its luster?Written on Nov 19 2010

- "There was nothing like HAIR when it opened on Broadway in April 1968, and there's nothing like the revival. HAIR was then and is now … a jolt of adrenaline."--Bloomberg

Description
A celebration of life, a love letter to freedom, and a passionate cry for hope and change, HAIR defined one generation and continues to inspire today. Join the tribe of the Age of Aquarius for the story of a group of friends choosing to speak up and sing out in celebration of love, life, and freedom. The first great rock musical, it has some of the most rousing and soulful songs ever written for the stage, including "Let the Sun Shine In," "Good Morning Starshine," "Aquarius," and the infectious title song, "Hair."
