"Hair" on the Small Screen

Hey, if you're a fan of the musical Hair, you'll want to keep an eye out for this documentary: Hair: Let the Sunshine In. It traces the birth of the '60s musical and premieres this month on the Sundance Channel.

It's an illustrated history of the musical, and looks at the origins, impact and power of the "tribal love-rock musical."

Hair first opened Off-Broadway in 1967 and moved to Broadway in 1968, and won a Tony this year for the revival running on Broadway right now.

Like they always say, check your local listings and set the DVR!
