Set amidst the backdrop of 1960s Baltimore, this musical based on the John Waters' film of the same name explores some charged and unfortunately still relevant topics of fatphobia, racism, and bullying with a very upbeat, comedic and positive style. You can’t help but fall in love with Tracy Turnblad and the rest of the story of Hairspray.
All performances of Hairspray take place at the American Legion Nonantum Post 440 (295 California St., Newton MA).
This production is sponsored by Chris Evans and Owen and Kim Sullivan.
