Kacie Sheik, who currently plays Jeanie in Hair, and who has been with the show since it began as a 40th Anniversary concert in 2007, will play her final performance when the first national touring company of the production wraps up its summer Broadway run at the St. James Theatre on September 10.

Also departing after the Broadway run are cast members Arbender Robinson and Cailan Rose. The rest of the current cast will continue with the production, and will be joined by Aleque Reid as Jeanie, and new Tribe members Max Kumangai and Anne Markt when the show resumes its national tour at Dallas’s AT&T Performing Arts Center on September 20.

Hair is directed by Diane Paulus, features a book and lyrics by Gerome Ragni and Rado, music by Galt MacDermot, and choreography by Karole Armitage.
