I Believe in Love

Hair cancels upcoming show to support a great cause! I love when theatre truly inspires change within society and what a better example of that then Hair. It was announced today by the producers of the Tony-winning revival of Hair that they will be canceling their Oct. 11 performances so that the entire cast can join the National Equality March in Washington, D.C.

"The Public Theater has always aspired to make theatre that matters, that speaks to the great social issues of our time. Hair has never been just a show; its message of change and hope and inclusion is one we try to live, not just preach. This is the moment when we need to recognize the right of all citizens, gay and straight, to have their love and their unions acknowledged by the state. We are proud to join with Cleve Jones and the National Equality March in support of gay marriage. Peace now! Equality now! Justice forever!"-Oskar Eustis, artistic director of The Public Theater and producer of Hair.
DO NOT FORGET YOU CAN WATCH THE CAST OF HAIR ON CONAN TONIGHT!!!
