Eustis, Artistic Director of the Public Theater commented, "We are delighted to welcome the Tribe back to New York after a year of spreading 'Hair's' message of peace, love and justice across the United States. Now more than ever we need to Let the Sun Shine in!"

Director Diane Paulus said, "Taking 'Hair' across America has deepened the show in ways I could never have imagined. The tribe that is coming back to Broadway has traveled the country together. They are a true tribe. For me, they are the 'best of' cast - original Broadway company members, people who joined us for our London run, and the youngest new cast members who joined the tour and will now be making their Broadway debut."

Directed by Paulus and choreographed by Karole Armitage, 'Hair' features a book and lyrics by Gerome Ragni and James Rado and music by Galt MacDermot. The story of a group of young Americans searching for love and peace during the Vietnam era, 'Hair' is a timeless portrait of a movement that changed the world. Its groundbreaking rock score paved the way for some of the greatest musicals of our time. Now, the "Age of Aquarius" dawns again in this jubilant new production. The creative team also includes Scott Pask (scenic design), Michael McDonald (costume design), Kevin Adams (lighting design) and Acme Sound Partners (sound design).
