One of the funniest plays ever written, The Nerd is
a side-splitting comedy. Willum Gilbert has it all - a promising
career as an architect, devoted friends, even, maybe, a serious
girlfriend. But then Rick Steadman, the ultimate social misfit,
comes to visit and puts everything in peril. The Nerd
escalates into madcap farce as Willum tries to out-nerd his
sanity-destroying houseguest.

See the show that brought the 1960s to Broadway. In Hair,
American youth are acting out against The Establishment, Vietnam,
segregation and sexual rigidity. This show has vitality, timelessness
and meaning that embody not only the dreams of a generation
but truly the dawning of a new age. The rock musical is remembered
for its controversial nature as well as for such songs as Aquarius,
Hair, Good Morning Starshine, and Let the Sun
Shine In.
While it does contain adult situations and the use of adult
language, in this production of Hair there will be no
nudity on stage
