I agree that many musicals should have been awarded the Pulitzer Prize or at least been in contention. HAIR, like ASSASSINS, were probably too controversial at the time to give it such an award (although I would say that HAIR especially deserved it - there was no award for drama that year.) I do like that the Pulitzer can elect not to make an award on any given year. I think that keeps the standard higher than not.
