While all of this is going on around us: Hate, pain, Disappointment, Sore Losers, Sore Winners, and fear that I see on the faces of many people I pass on the street in NYC, for the first time, in a Long time, Maybe since the Original production of HAIR, a musical is at the front and center of a national debate.
