Tickets for HAIRSPRAY: THE BIG FAT ARENA SPECTACULAR On Sale Now!

HAIRSPRAY - THE BIG FAT ARENA SPECTACULAR looks set to break world records when it bounces into the Adelaide Entertainment Centre on 14 & 15 October 2016. With more than 650 local Adelaide musical theatre 'superstars', this production will blow the roof off the Entertainment Centre. Tickets are on sale from Monday 9 May from www.ticketek.com.au or 132 849.

HAIRSPRAY - THE BIG FAT ARENA PRODUCTION will feature a professional cast of musical theatre performers and a large amateur ensemble of more than 650 young Adelaide performers ranging in age from 9- 21 years.

In April 2016, more than 13,000 people saw the show when Harvest Rain premiered HAIRSPRAY THE BIG FAT ARENA SPECTACULAR in Brisbane featuring singer and actress Christine Anu in the role of Motormouth Maybelle and newcomer Lauren McKenna as Tracy Turnblad. In 2014, Harvest Rain produced a major arena production of CATS starring Marina Prior and featuring over 800 performers from across South East Queensland. The production was seen by more than 13,000 people and set a world record for the largest production of CATS ever staged in the southern hemisphere.

The critics raved in Brisbane. 'Starring Lauren McKenna as the big and beautiful Tracy Turnblad, the show was packed full of aerosol fumes, bright lights and massive dance numbers. With the biggest cast in a production of "Hairspray" ever, the show promised to wow audiences, and it didn't disappoint ... Christine Anu delivered a stellar performance as the fearless mother figure Motormouth Maybelle, giving the character all the sass she needed to shine through.' Scenestr.com.au

'With a principal cast of names, headed by Simon Burke, Tim Campbell, Christine Anu, Amanda Muggleton and Wayne Scott Kermond, musical theatre graduates, and hundreds of kids with stars-in-their-eyes, this irresistible salute to the sixties is a spectacular and way OTT production.' Stagewhispers.com.au

With explosive choreography and stunning sets and costumes, HAIRSPRAY will be an unforgettable journey back to the 60s. It's 1962, and pleasantly plump Baltimore teen Tracy Turnblad has only one desire - to be on television dancing on the popular Corny Collins Show. When her dream comes true, Tracy is transformed from social outcast to sudden star, but she must use her newfound power to vanquish the reigning Teen Queen, win the affections of heartthrob Link Larkin and integrate a television network - all without denting her 'do!

Produced by Harvest Rain, HAIRSPRAY is directed & choreographed by Callum Mansfield (Dirty Dancing, The King & I, Cats Arena Spectacular) with Musical direction by Dennett Hudson, Designs by Josh McIntosh and Lighting Design by Trudy Dalgleish.

Also starring Stacey de Waard as Amber Von Tussle, Vidya Maken as Lil Inez and Emily Monsma as Penny Pingleton.

Taking place at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre for 3 performances only on 14 & 15 October 2016.
