HAIR: Meet your Sydney Cast

The Australian premier of HAIR debuted on June 6 1969, now 57 years later The Tribal Love-Rock Musical is returning to Sydney.

HAIR tells the story of The Tribe: a group of free-spirited young hippies who advocate a lifestyle of pacifism and free love in a society riddled with intolerance and brutality.
