Hairspray opens December 3 and runs through December 20 at Actors Theatre @ Quapaw Quarter United Methodist Church! See below for information about the show, seating & tickets, the cast, and more!
The 1950s are out, and change is in the air! Hairspray, winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical, is a family-friendly musical, piled bouffant-high with laughter, romance and deliriously tuneful songs. 🎀🕺🏻📺
It's 1962 in Baltimore, and the lovable plus-size teen, Tracy Turnblad, has only one desire – to dance on the popular "Corny Collins Show." When her dream comes true, Tracy is transformed from social outcast to sudden star. She must use her newfound power to dethrone the reigning Teen Queen, win the affections of heartthrob, Link Larkin, and integrate a TV network... all without denting her 'do!
With each seat, be fully immersed and transported to The Corny Collins Show set with all of the glitz and glam of Baltimore and the 1960s! With only 3 weeks to catch this production, grab your Ultra Clutch, tease that hair, and join us for Hairspray!
