About the Show:
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!
Casting Information:
Hairspray celebrates diversity, community, and the power of inclusion. The story explores issues of race, body image, and equality with humor, heart, and hope.
Because the story takes place in 1960s Baltimore at the height of the civil rights movement, certain roles are cast to reflect the realities of racial segregation and the show’s central themes. Characters such as Motormouth Maybelle, Seaweed, and Little Inez are Black, while others, like Tracy and the Turnblad family, are white. This distinction is essential to the story’s honesty and impact.
A large and energetic ensemble is required bring this world to life, filling the streets of Baltimore, the colorful bustle of Mr. Pinky’s Hefty Hideaway, and the lively set of the Corny Collins Show. Meaning roles outside of named parts are essential to creating this story that celebrates having the courage to stand up for change.
