Hair: The American Tribal Love-Rock Musical

About the Show

Winner of the 2009 Tony for Best Revival of a Musical!

Hair: The American Tribal Love-Rock Musical features book and lyrics by James Rado and Gerome Ragni, and music by Galt MacDermot. Diane Paulus directs a cast led by Diana DeGarmo, Kyle Riabko, and Ace Young.

With a score including musical numbers as “Let the Sun Shine In,” “Aquarius,” “Hair” and “Good Morning Starshine,” Hair follows a group of hopeful, free-spirited young people who advocate a lifestyle of pacifism and free-love in a society riddled with intolerance and brutality during the Vietnam War. As they explore sexual identity, challenge racism, experiment with drugs and burn draft cards, the “tribe” in Hair creates an irresistible message of ‘hope’ that continues to resonate with audiences 40 years later.

The production opened on Broadway to rave reviews, with TheaterMania’s Brian Scott Lipton declaring that “in the remarkably sure hands of director Diane Paulus and a committed cast of young Broadway talent, the landmark 1967 work not only retains its political and social relevance, but remains a remarkably joyous and occasionally heartbreaking piece of theater. The result is the year’s best Broadway musical revival.”
