Bio

John Waters' campy 80s tale of segregation and acceptance, Hairspray, is now an eight-time Tony Award-winning musical. Since its premiere on Broadway in 2002, Hairspray has been delighting audiences around the world with 60s pop music, campy and colorful scenery, and its timeless tale of a young girl fighting for her dreams.

John Waters' classic tale of youth in revolt follows the story of "pleasantly plump" teen Tracy Turnblad. Against the wishes of her insecure mother, Edna, Tracy and her nerdy best friend Penny audition for a pageant thrown by their favorite dance show, The Corny Collins Show. At the auditions, Tracy falls in love with teen heartthrob Link Larkin but is ultimately rejected from the contest due to her size by the narrow-minded Velma Von Tussle. Incensed at her rejection, and the rejection of all black contestants, Tracy learns some new dance moves from her friend Seaweed J. Stubbs and blows Corny Collins away at her school dance. However, Velma and her daughter, Tracy's stuck up arch enemy Amber, won't let her win the contest that easily, and Tracy will have to battle both the Von Tussles and racial prejudice in order to see her lifelong dreams fulfilled.
