"You Can't Stop the Beat" in this big, Broadway hit!
A big, beautiful Broadway hit! It’s 1962. The 50s are out, and Baltimore is ready for change! Trendsetting teenager Tracy Turnblad has big hair, a big heart and an even bigger dream – to dance on “The Corny Collins Show.” When her once-in-a-lifetime opportunity arrives, she grooves her way from outsider to instant teen celebrity. But she’ll need the help of a cast of crazy characters to really shake things up! Can she dethrone the program’s reigning princess, integrate the show’s dance floor and find true love without denting her ’do? Find out if a toe-tapping beat and a whole lot of hairspray is enough to make a dream come true. Featuring hits such as “Mama, I'm a Big Girl Now,” “You Can't Stop the Beat” and “Good Morning, Baltimore.”
