Big shout out and thank you to JAMES WALSKI for creating, directing and choreographing TRIP OF LOVE and then bringing it to the New York stage. With over 25 of the biggest hits of the 1960’s, he revives, and in some cases, introduces a magical era of revolution, hope, and most importantly love. Featuring Joey Calveri, David Elder, Kelly Felthous, Dionne Figgins, Austin Miller, Tara Palsha and Laurie Wells, you will hear classics of all genres, such as “White Rabbit,” “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida,” “Where The Boys Are,” “Where Have All The Flowers Gone,” “Wipe Out,” “I Saw Her Standing There,” “These Boots Are Made For Walking,” “Moon River,” “Blowin’ In the Wind,” “You Don’t Own Me,” and so many more. With scenic design by Tony Award winner Robin Wagner and costume design by Tony Award winner Gregg Barnes combined with top-notch choreography and some mighty fine voices, every song is given a first-class presentation.
Amidst white fringe (and boots), oozing psychedelic colors, mini-skirts, stacked shoes, much denim, and a plethora of flowers, TRIP OF LOVE becomes a tribute to war protests, treasured memories, renewed dreams, and a time where love ruled. It makes you glad you were a part of this special time. And if you are too young to remember, this will be a source of inspiration and emulation for you. TRIP OF LOVE is a one-of-a-kind musical experience that should not be missed.
