The year is 1967, and the Vietnam War is at its height. In New York City, a tribe of hippies rails against the establishment, protesting intolerance, brutality, and the dehumanization of society. When Claude, one of their own, gets drafted, he must make a decision about what values are worth fighting for. Book and Lyrics James Rado and Gerome Ragni, Music by Galt MacDermot, directed by Diane Paulus.
