Synopsis:
Feel the beat, embrace the freedom, and let your spirit soar—Hair is the electrifying musical that defined a generation and still inspires audiences today. Bursting with unforgettable songs like “Aquarius,” “Let the Sunshine In,” and “Good Morning Starshine,” this groundbreaking celebration of love, peace, and self-expression is a joyous theatrical experience you’ll never forget.
Set in the turbulent 1960s, Hair follows a vibrant “tribe” of young people searching for truth, identity, and connection against the backdrop of the Vietnam War and a rapidly changing America. At the heart of the story is Claude, torn between embracing a life of free-spirited rebellion and answering the call to serve. Alongside his colorful friends—Berger, Sheila, and the rest of the tribe—Claude wrestles with the meaning of loyalty, love, and freedom in a world on the brink of transformation.
Overflowing with energy, humor, and heart, Hair is more than a musical—it’s an exuberant celebration of community and the power of standing up for what you believe in. From its iconic rock score to its dazzling choreography and infectious spirit, this timeless show invites you to sing along, dance in your seat, and remember that the ideals of peace and love never go out of style.
Join us for a theatrical journey that’s as fresh and powerful today as it was when it first set the stage ablaze. Hair is a feel-good, soul-stirring experience for audiences of all ages—because no matter when you were born, everyone deserves to let the sunshine in.
