Adult-oriented musicals can consider themselves on the chopping block for NBC. The network has cut short its plans to air Hair Live!, which had been originally scheduled for a May 19 telecast, as the network’s next live musical. Instead, NBC plans to refocus its live musical programming to family-friendly shows in a return to the broad-appeal titles like The Sound Of Music, which helped launch the current live TV musical phenomenon.
