By Rebecca Suhrawardi Austin
It was a good old fashioned love-in last night in the Meatpacking District, as Theory teamed up with the Public Theater to present a smashing preview of their upcoming Central Park production of Hair. The front porch of the Theory store, on the corner of Gansevoort and Greenwich, was transformed into a veritable Age-of-Aquarius-style love fest as guests (the crowd was fashion and theater heavy -- think Vogue editors and Broadway stars) sat on the ground on colorful carpet "dots" and swayed their arms to classics like "Aquarius," "Black Boys," "White Boys," and of course, "Hair." And it all seemed very relevant considering the current state of political and global affairs; indeed, after the emcee declared our current war "illegal," the crowd responding by roaring with applause.
