Each Clear Channel New York radio station (106.7 Lite fm, 103.5 KTU, Q104.3, WALK 97.5 and Z100) will hold a 2 week auction, the first auction began Thursday, March 11, 2010 with a prize that includes dinner with cast-member Diana DeGarmo.

Directed by Diane Paulus and choreographed by Karole Armitage, HAIR features a book and lyrics by Gerome Ragni and James Rado and music by Galt MacDermot. HAIR began preview performances on March 6 at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre and opened to rave reviews on March 31, 2009.
