Hairspray at Diamond Head Theatre

Loveable plus-size heroine, Tracy Turnblad, who has a passion for dancing, wins a spot on the local TV dance program. Overnight, she finds herself transformed from outsider to teen celebrity. But Tracy's world doesn't stay so rosy, as she runs into trouble when she tries to expand the show so she can dance with her black friends, which is easier said than done in 1962. A musical-comedy phenomenon (with hit songs like "Good Morning Baltimore", "You Can't Stop the Beat") Hairspray inspired a major motion picture and won the 2003 Tony Awards Best Musical.
