Hair marks the Globe's first full-scale production in the 17 months since the inception of the pandemic.
The Old Globe announced today that the theatre will recognize San Diego health care workers for their service and dedication throughout the COVID-19 pandemic with tickets to its production of the legendary love-rock musical Hair. The Globe will offer a limited number of free tickets to health care workers for every performance of the show during its run from August 10 to September 26.
"The Old Globe's gift of complimentary tickets for Hair is intended to provide, in some small way, a token of appreciation for the hardships, sacrifices, and tireless hours of service that our San Diego health care workers gave and continue to give to our community during COVID-19," said Audrey S. Geisel Managing Director Timothy J. Shields. "We hope that our health care workers will enjoy an evening of entertainment under the stars in The Old Globe's fabled outdoor Lowell Davies Festival Theatre."The Old Globe is proud to present the American tribal love-rock musical Hair, which marks the Globe's first full-scale production in the 17 months since the inception of the pandemic. Resident Artist James Vásquez (The Old Globe's American Mariachi and Tiny Beautiful Things) directs a cast of 16, which will perform iconic hits from the Grammy Award-winning musical such as "Let the Sunshine In," "Aquarius," "Good Morning Starshine," and the exuberant title song, "Hair." The crowd-pleasing musical features book and lyrics by Gerome Ragni and James Rado and music by Galt MacDermot.
Limited free tickets for San Diego health care workers are available for every performance of Hair and are first-come, first-served.
