Original Toronto Star caption: In years to come when people talk about Hair; says Star drama critic Nathan Cohen; the contribution of writers Gerome Ragni and James Rado will be cited as overwhelming support for those theatre people who feel that writers should have no say in the way their work is staged; and should be barred from rehearsals. Critic Cohen found last night's official opening performance lacking in many departments.
