In 1960s Baltimore, spunky Tracy Turnblad has big hair, a big heart, and even bigger dreams - to dance on The Corny Collins Show. When she gets her chance, she uses her newfound fame to integrate the show. Winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Hairspray is full of laughter, romance and catchy tunes such as “Welcome to the 60s” and “You Can’t Stop the Beat.”
“Uptempo fun that leaves you tapping your toes and grinning like a goofball.” - ChicagoCritic
