CAAL Night: Hair, The American Tribal Love-Rock Musical

Hair tells the story of the "tribe", a group of politically active, long-haired "Hippies of the Age of Aquarius" fighting against conscription to the Vietnam War and living a bohemian life together in New York City. Claude, his good friend Berger, their roommate Sheila and all their friends struggle to balance their young lives, loves and the sexual revolution with their pacifist rebellion against the war and the conservative impulses of their parents and society. Ultimately Claude must decide whether or not to resist the draft, as his friends have done. 

After the performance, CAAL members enjoyed a post-show talkback with the Director of Hair, Diane Paulus '97SOA.
