Genesius Theatre of Reading performs five shows of the love rock musical âHairâ outdoors under the Big Top at Willow Glen Park in Sinking Spring Aug. 5 to 9.
Genesius has had a love affair with this show since the theater company first presented âHairâ in the summer of 1976, at the now demolished Astor Theater on Penn Street, where the Santander Arena now stands. The show was directed by Genesius co-founder Michael OâFlaherty.
In the summer of 1998, Scott Russell directed the show outdoors in Schelegel Park, and the Tribe also cleaned up the brush around the painted rock peace sign on Mount Penn.

Yost and other librarians in Berks said they will not pull the books off the shelves without proper procedures. This can be used as a learning experience, Yost says. It opens people s eyes as to how people felt at that time.
