Hairspray

This tuneful Tony-winning triumph is just as big as the hairdos that inspired it!

With big girls, big hair, and even bigger laughs, comes Hairspray, a splashy new musical
based on the 1988 John Waters film that starred Divine and a then-unknown Ricki Lake.

It's 1962 and pleasantly plump Baltimore teen Tracy Turnblad has only one dream
to dance on the popular Corny Collins Show. When her dream comes true, Tracy is
transformed from social outcast to sudden star, but she must use her newfound
power to vanquish the reigning teen queen, win the affections of heartthrob Link
Larkin and integrate a TV network, all without denting her 'do!

Hairspray became an immediate Broadway smash when it premiered at the Neil Simon Theatre in the summer
of 2002. After winning eight Tony Awards including Best Musical, its place in Broadway history was confirmed.
To quote one of the show's many catchy songs, "you can't stop the beat" of this hair-hopping hit!
