HAIRSPRAY

About a perky plus-size girl named Tracy Turnblad. Tracy wants to follow her dreams and become a regular on Maryland's hit tv show "The Corny Collins Show. Only to be rejected the first time by the ever so conniving Velma von Tussle and her daughter Amber von Tussle. Tracy ends up being the champion dancer at the Baltimore Civil Rights Movement. This musical is set in the 1960s, back when racism still roamed the earth. Tracy dreams one day that the show will intergrate blacks and whites. Tracy along with her would be love, Link Larkin, her ditzy best friend, Penny Pingleton, and we can't forget about her larger than life mother, Edna Turnblad. Together they will open peoples minds and peoples hearts. Tracy is a true inspiration. Your young children probably won't understand the story line, but they will absoltely love the music!
