It is all women, all the time, as the musical “Beehive: The 60’s Musical” swings onto the stage as the final production of the 2015 season at the venerable Arundel Barn.

Sixties musical nostalgia is given voice in a chronological cavalcade of hits from radio’s glory years and the era of the 45 rpm record. It was the age of Joey Dee’s Peppermint Lounge, juke boxes, and disk jockey Murray the K.

Six charming and spirited ladies treat us to over 40 songs in this two-act cabaret and the blend of their voices as an ensemble is just terrific. Decked out in their high-heeled white go-go boots and an ever-changing array of one outrageous hair style after another, we are treated to a delightful dish of marvelous melodic machination.

The Chiffons, the Shirelles, the Supremes, Leslie Gore, Petula Clark, Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin and Tina Turner are all duly represented in this musical valentine to the age of high hair, dark eye makeup and the towering height of the Beehive hairstyle.

When I was growing up, my own Aunt Rose, a New Jersey bank manager and clothes horse, had a beautifully coifed and meticulously cared-for mountain of a beehive. Always a muchtalked about topic of conversation at family dinner parties, we marveled at the ability of her salon to sculpt such a monument of tresses on Aunt Rose’s tiny head.

The stage set for “Beehive” is simple but very smartly conceived by Tim Reed. It’s a clever homage to lipstick, hairspray and luscious lips. It well serves as a playground for the choreographic antics devised by director/choreographer Gary John La Rosa.

The ladies, Annelise Caprano and Ginny Vass, both from Montclair State University, are joined by Roslyn Seale from Brooklyn, Caroline Keegan and Allison Sandler from New York University and Brigette Estola from Ludington, Michigan.

In “Beehive: The 60’s Musical,” they all use their own names and develop an easy rapport with the audience, sometimes actually bringing audience members on stage to join the action. It’s a nice personal touch. The love scene between Brigette and an unassuming audience member during Carol King’s famous love ballad “Will you Love Me Tomorrow” is sure to illicit some grand impromptu hilarity.

The entire enterprise is good fun. This is well-produced musical theater and artfully sung by this sextet of young talent. The song medleys are a mix of high energy full ensemble brilliance interspersed with some titillating trios. Character chemistry is as important as a strong voice and in this regard the cast connects.

The many solos are difficult for this reviewer to assess as I attended the producer’s preview performance and the sound and mic system were all but non-functional, a glitch that will assuredly be rectified before opening night. Get ready for some robust hand-clapping, Tina Turner’s high kicks and a sing-a-long with Janis Joplin. This production is highly recommended.

Although the selection of hits is extensive, I was yearning for two of my favorites from that era, The Ronette anthem “Be My Baby” and “Dancing in the Street” by Martha and the Vandellas, and who wouldn’t welcome a few more songs from Diana Ross and the Supremes?

This season finale is a welcomed end to the 18th year of Arundel Barn history.
