Big hair, big dreams, and even bigger heart—Hairspray is the irresistibly fun, feel-good musical that will have you dancing in your seat from the very first beat!

Hairspray, is a comedy-drama set in 1962 Baltimore, USA, following the story of Tracy Turnblad, a plus-sized teen, as she strives to get on “The Corny Collins Show” and uses her newfound fame to fight for inclusion and racial integration.

Hairspray took Broadway by storm, winning 8 Tony awards. The production went on to win 4 Olivier awards in the West End, and multiple awards worldwide. Featuring songs such as ‘Good Morning Baltimore’, ‘I Know Where I’ve Been’ and You Can’t Stop The Beat’, this toe tapping musical bursts with high-energy choreography, unforgettable characters, and an important message of acceptance and empowerment.
