Based on the 1988 John Water’s film, Hairspray was the winner of eight 2003 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Best Book of a Musical, Original Score, and three individual acting awards! In 1962 Baltimore, plump teenager Tracy Turnblad's dream is to dance on The Corny Collins Show, a local TV dance program. When Tracy wins a role on the show, she becomes a celebrity overnight and launches a campaign to integrate the show. With a mix of 1960s-style dance music and rhythm and blues, and hits like “Good Morning Baltimore”, “Welcome to the 60s”, and “You Can’t Stop the Beat”, Hairspray will have audiences dancing in the aisles!
