Hairspray is on tour and hits the Byham Theater in Pittsburgh PA Ended 15 May 2011.

"HAIR seems MORE DARING THAN EVER"
Time

"SERIOUS CONTACT HIGH. Revelatory and exuberant!"
Ben Brantley of The New York Times

In Hairspray it's 1962 - the '50s are out and change is in the air. Baltimore's Tracy Turnblad, a big girl with big hair and an even bigger heart, has only one passion - to dance.

She wins a spot on the local TV dance program. "The Corny Collins Show" and, overnight, is transformed from outsider to irrepressible teen celebrity. But can a trendsetter in dance and fashion vanquish the program's reigning princess, win the heart of heartthrob Link Larkin, and integrate a television show without denting her 'do? Only in Hairspray! Welcome to the '60s!
