Hair's Tony-nominee Gavin Creel is hosting the event and will lead his fellow cast members in a performance from the show. Said Creel: “I am thrilled that we are able to come together as a community to urge
people to take direct action by calling their State Senators. This peaceful rally is going to be about love – and the right
to marry whoever it is that you love.”
