Spain: 'Hair' Musical Respects New Smoking Law

Backstage: "Actors playing joint-puffing hippies in a Spanish adaptation of the American musical 'Hair' are not violating a new law banning tobacco-smoking in enclosed public places, an official said Thursday.
A spectator had complained it might be tobacco the actors are smoking, and a formal complaint was filed with the play's producers, Barcelona city health department official Manel Pineiro said. But the production company ultimately showed the cigarettes were just herbs like basil.
