The granddaddy of all rock musicals, Hair is at once both a joyous celebration of youth and a poignant journey through a tumultuous 1960s America. This exuberant musical about a group of teenagers searching for truth, peace and love in a Vietnam War era, has struck a resonant chord with audiences of all ages. Hair features an eclectic score filled with classics, including “Aquarius,” “Let the Sun Shine In,” “Good Morning, Starshine” and “Easy To Be Hard.” The themes and struggles in Hair remain vital and relevant to the times we live in today.

The Washington Post Review
“Keegan has cultivated a knack for reviving Broadway musicals of a certain anti-bourgeois edge…reproduc[ing] them in an up-close way that’s hard to achieve on Broadway or at the Kennedy Center. It’s a niche, and Keegan fills it.”
DC Theatre Scene Review
“If, like me, your only exposure to the songs has been recordings, this cast and the kick-ass band (under the direction of Jake Null) will make every note and lyric stick with you long after they have hung up their tie-dye.”
Broadway World Review
“The Keegan Theatre’s version of HAIR, with top-notch direction by husband and wife team Mark Rhea and Susan Marie Rhea, evokes the feel of the era without reproducing its exact look. “
Magic Time! Review
“Every moment onstage, [the cast] seem[s] to genuinely enjoy one another, and their spirited mutual admiration is irresistible. This ensemble is not only highly skilled; it’s the kissingest cast I’ve ever seen.”
DC Metro Theater Arts Review
“The opening song “Aquarius” set the mood for the evening, featuring Ines Nassara as Ronny, delivering a powerful, chilling belt that brought me goosebumps.”
MD Theatre Guide Review
“The nine-member orchestra, led by pianist conductor Jake Null, does a splendid job handling the music, keeping it fresh and lively at all times.”
