Baltimore, 1962. Tracy Turnblad
is a big girl with big hair and an
even bigger dream: to dance her
way onto national TV, and into
the heart of teen idol Link Larkin.
Tracy’s audition makes her a local
star and soon she is using her new-
found fame to fight for integration.
But can she win equality – and
Link’s heart – without denting her
‘do’? Featuring the hit songs
“Welcome To The 60s”, “You
Can’t Stop The Beat”, “The Nicest
Kids in Town” and many more,
Hairspray will leave you breathless!
