Hairspray is based on the 1988 film by John Waters and originally opened on Broadway in 2002.

It’s Baltimore, 1962 where Tracy Turnblad, a big girl with big hair and an even bigger heart, is on a mission to follow her dreams and dance her way onto national TV.

Tracy’s audition makes her a local star and soon she is using her new found fame to fight for equality, bagging local heartthrob Link Larkin along the way!
