Hair, Music Mountain Theater
3 and 8pm Let the sunshine in! The American tribal love rock musical HAIR celebrates the sixties counterculture in all its barefoot, long-haired, bell-bottomed, beaded and fringed glory. To an infectiously energetic rock beat, the show wows audiences with songs like "Aquarius," "Good Morning, Starshine," "Hair," "I Got Life" and "Let The Sunshine In." Exploring ideas of identity, community, global responsibility and peace, HAIR remains relevant as ever as it examines what it means to be a young person in a changing world. ? Content Warning: This production contains mature subject matter, including themes related to substance use, strong language, suggestive material, and brief, non-explicit disrobing. It reflects the expressive and rebellious spirit of the 1960s. Viewer discretion is advised. Click here for more information
