About the Show

This Broadway musical-comedy phenomenon inspired a major motion picture and won eight 2003 Tony® Awards, including Best Musical. It’s 1962, and pleasantly plump Baltimore 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, 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 is a dream come true!" –The Star-Ledger

"A great big fat gorgeous hit!" –The New York Post
