2:00 pmHairspray LIED CENTER for PERFORMING ARTS
Broadway's Tony Award-winning musical-comedy phenomenon takes you back to 1962 Baltimore, as 16-year-old Tracy Turnblad sets out to dance her way onto TV's most popular show. Can a big girl with big dreams- and even bigger hair- change the world... and still have time to win the boy she loves? This mega-hit is piled bouffant-high with laughter and romance- and enough deliriously tuneful new songs to fill a nonstop platter-party. It's the winner of eight 2003 Tony Awards, including Best Musical. The New York Times says, "If life were everything it should be, it would be more like Hairspray. It's irresistible!"
