Radio Catskill - Curtain Call with Tom Candela

On this episode of Curtain Call, Tom sits down with director Willo Hausman for an in-depth conversation centered on her upcoming production of Hair, opening July 9, 2026 at the Byrdcliffe Theater in Woodstock, New York. This is not a nostalgia-driven revival, but a contemporary reimagining that honors the original spirit of Hair while engaging directly with the world we’re living in now. Willo shares her vision for a production rooted in community, choice, collective responsibility, and what she describes as the lived reality of the Aquarian Age.  Willo also talks about her work as founder of The Tivoli Players and Gryphon Pictures, and how her background across theatre, film, and production informs her collaborative approach.
