Hairspray is a vibrant and energetic musical set in the 1960s that follows Tracy Turnblad, a plucky teenager with big dreams and even bigger hair. Tracy’s passion for dancing leads her to audition for “The Corny Collins Show,” a popular local TV dance program. Despite societal pressures and her plus-sized figure, she wins a spot on the show, becoming an overnight sensation with her infectious optimism in “Good Morning Baltimore.” The musical addresses themes of acceptance, diversity, and social justice, all wrapped up in catchy tunes such as the show-stopping “You Can’t Stop the Beat” and the empowering “Welcome to the 60’s.” With its high-energy dance numbers and memorable songs, Hairspray is a feel-good musical with a meaningful message about fighting prejudice and championing inclusivity.
