Hairspray
You can't stop the beat in this big and bold musical about one girl's inspiring dream to dance. Hairspray, winner of 8 TONY Awards including Best Musical, is a family-friendly musical bouffant piled high with laughter, romance, and deliriously tuneful songs.
The 1950's are out and change is in the air! It's 1962 in 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, Tracy is transformed from social outcast to sudden star. She must use her new found power to dethrone the reigning Teen Queen, win the affections of heartthrob Link Larkin, and integrate a TV network, all without denting her 'do!
Hairspray is a dynamite PGT performance you won't want to miss!
