Get ready to dance the night away with Hairspray! This irresistible, feel-good musical is set in Baltimore in 1962 and tells the story of Tracy Turnblad, a big girl with big hair and an even bigger dream: to dance her way onto TV and into the heart of teen idol Link Larkin.

Tracy’s audition makes her a local star, and she quickly uses her newfound fame to fight for integration. But can she win equality — and Link’s heart — without denting her “do”? Hairspray is a winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical!
