After 15 months at the Al Hirschfeld Theater, the revival of Hair will close its curtains for good on Sunday, June 27. Diana tweeted about the news earlier this evening:

The closing release emphasized that Hair recouped its entire $5,760,000 investment four months into the run and has generated a profit. The show weakened at the box office after the original cast departed for London, grossing $351,992 for the week ending June 6 and playing to 46.50% of capacity.
By the time the show closes, Diana will have starred as Sheila for nearly four months, as she and the rest of the current tribe began exactly three months ago today.
Stay tuned for more news on Hair's closing weeks.
