HAIR Comes to the Van Wezel, 4/2

HAIR: a celebration of peace and love!, the 2009 Tony Award-Winning Best Musical Revival directed by Diane Paulus, will play the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall on April 2, 2013. With an iconic score including chart-topping hits such as "Let the Sun Shine In," "Aquarius," "Hair" and "Good Morning Starshine," HAIR energetically depicts the birth of a cultural movement in the '60s and '70s that changed America forever. HAIR's powerful message resonates as much today as it did 40 years ago when the show opened on Broadway.

This critically-acclaimed revival became a theatrical tour de force in its limited engagement in Central Park later moving to Broadway where it won the 2009 Tony Award for Best Musical Revival as well as the Drama Desk, Drama League, and Outer Critics Circle award for Outstanding Revival of a Musical.

This inspiring new production of HAIR, which features an exuberant finale where audiences are invited onstage to dance with the cast, has a level of inclusiveness that is rarely seen in musical theater. Executive producer, Daniel Sher, notes that, "We are excited for audiences across the country to take this journey with us. See for yourself, let your hair down and share the love!"

Tickets are priced from $30-$75. For more information, call the Box Office at 941-953-3368, or toll free 800-826-9303, or visit www.VanWezel.org.
