It’s 1962 Baltimore and the lovable plus-size teen Tracy Turnblad has only one desire – to dance on the popular Corny Collins Show. When her dream comes true her life takes on more challenges. She finds there are even more important things than fame and dancing, even more so than attaining the love of her life, teen idol Link Larkin, such as friendship and equality

Although a musical comedy, Hairspray has a message to share that is as relevant today as it was in the time the show is set, 1962 Maryland. Dream big and live from the inside out, for what you feel and believe on the inside is the true manifestation of what you present to the world. 

Hairspray is a family-friendly piled bouffant high with laughter, romance, and deliriously tuned songs.
Winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical,
