The Summer of Love is about the music and the cultural rebellion that changed our lives forever – so be sure to wear flowers in your hair because this is going to be one big party!

Featured is music from The Beatles, The Mammas and The Pappas, Jimi Hendrix, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Janis Joplin, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young & many more. The diversity of the music from this golden era is mind blowing as we take you on a long and winding road to the song San Francisco (be sure to wear flowers in your hair), which became a signature tune of this era, followed by the west coast sound with songs like Monday Monday, California Dreaming and let’s not forget the musical Hair!

Also featured in the show is a tribute to The Woodstock Music Festival of August 1969 when five hundred thousand people gathered for 3 days of peace, love and music. Highlights of this festival include Joe Cocker’s With a little help from my friends performed by the talented SK Motubatsi and Jimi Hendrix’s Star Spangled Banner and Purple Haze performed by Jason Guile. Let’s not forget the San Francisco band Creedence Clearwater Revival (who also performed at Woodstock) who dominated the charts in 1969 with songs like Down on the corner, Who’ll stop the rain, Proud Mary, Hey Tonight and many more.
