Three Rivers Music Theatre's HAIR to Start Rockin' Fort Wayne Next Month

By: Jun. 21, 2016

Opening July 8 at Williams Theatre (IPFW Campus), Three Rivers Music Theatre's HAIR is ready to rock! Join our colorful tribe of hippies for a performance you won't soon forget!

HAIR tells the story of Vietnam-era youths exuberantly creating their own rite of passage through the confusion around them. Among them are Claude (Jordan Gameon) and Berger (Aaron Mann); a pair of friends battling against Claude's draft notice, and Sheila (Kat Hickey), who is in love with both of them, but her politically-active lifestyle leaves little time to act on her feelings. Ultimately, Claude decides that the hippie life isn't for him and goes to Vietnam.

The musical that introduced rock 'n' roll to the theatrical stage, HAIR examines a group of 60s-era youth struggling for generational and personal identity, dealing with the Vietnam War, and exploring drugs and the sexual revolution. Iconic musical numbers include "Aquarius," "Good Morning Starshine," "Hair," "I Got Life," "Easy to be Hard," and "Let the Sun Shine." This show has a vitality, a timelessness, and a meaning that outlives the late 1960's and early 1970's in America. A must-see!

Performances for HAIR are Friday & Saturday at 8:00 PM and Saturday & Sunday at 2:00 PM, July 8 - 17, at Williams Theatre on the IPFW Campus.

Tickets are $25 (Adults), $20 (Seniors), and $18 (Students - with a valid Student ID). Tickets may be purchased by calling the IPFW Box office at 260-481-6555 or visit www.ipfw.edu/offices/special-events/boxoffice.
