HAIR in Chicago - Summer,1996

CyberRights and Civil Rights Hotlist



Within "Michael Butler Presents"

  • Pages from Michael Butler's Journal. The father of HAIR has a lot to say about the subject.

  • Also check out Pope Joan. You'll find a lot of food for thought about freedom and the theatrical process on these pages.

  • Take in a bit of Hair History on the HAIR pages. This page includes the story on how HAIR was important in establishing a path toward freedom of speech in the arts. The battles fought then are not very different from the current first amendment battle being fought over the CDA.
