COLLEGE THEATER DEPARTMENT WILL DO `HAIR'.

Byline: Joanne Crawford Education

Antelope Valley College will present a hippie musical, dance concert and a play for children in its 1997-98 theater season.

The college theater department will begin its season Oct. 31 with the love-rock musical ``Hair,'' with book and lyrics by Gerome Ragni and James Rado and music by Galt MacDermot.

Performances will be held on campus Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 7 p.m. through Nov. 16.

Tickets are $12 for adults and $8 for those 17 and younger.

People under age 17 will be admitted only if accompanied by an adult because the show contains explicit language and adult situations, college spokesman Steve Standerfer said.

``Dance Dimensions '98'' brings together faculty, guest artists and student choreographers for dance and theatrical magic at the Lancaster Performing Arts Center, 750 W. Lancaster Blvd., at 8 p.m. Feb. 6 and 7.

Tickets are $12 for adults and $8 for children.

The Theater for Young Audiences presentation of ``The Miracle Worker'' is set to be performed at the Lancaster Performing Arts Center at 8 p.m. May 1 and 2, and at 2 p.m. May 3, Standerfer said.

Four school performances also will be held April 29 through May 1, he said.

The classic drama, written by William Gibson, tells the inspirational story of the young Helen Keller and the teacher who ``put the world into her hands,'' Standerfer said.

In addition for the 1997-98 season, student playwrights will be showcased in the ``Original One-Act Festival'' at 8 p.m. May 22 and 23, and at 7 p.m. May 24, at the campus Blackbox Theater.

The season will conclude with ``You Can't Take It With You'' July 17-19 and July 24-26.

Show times are 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday.

Season subscribers can see all shows for only $37.50, which is a savings of $18 off of individual show prices.
