Hairspray, 12th to 15th February 2025
The performing arts and music students perform Hairspray, the stage musical known for its larger than life depiction of 1960s Baltimore. The musical follows the journey of Tracy Turnblad, a teen rebel who auditions for the Corny Collins show and against all odds secures her place. Featuring music in the style of this era, popular songs include
Welcome to the 60s, Good Morning Baltimore, The Nicest Kids in Town and
You Can't Stop the Beat. The story does not shy away from racial segregation and is reflected in Tracy's determination to fight for a more equitable life.
