You can’t stop our beat - Hairspray is back with us after 8 years - so run and tell that!

The musical phenomenon Hairspray returns! After breaking box office records and delighting audiences in the West End, Broadway and on the big screen since 1988, this smash hit musical-comedy is heading back out on tour around the UK and Ireland.

Starring Gina Murray (Chicago, Hairspray) as the fierce yet fabulous Velma von Tussle, with Hairspray royalty Brenda Edwards (Hairspray, We Will Rock You) making her directorial debut and featuring some of musical theatre’s biggest and best hit songs, including Welcome To The 60s, You Can’t Stop The Beat, Good Morning Baltimore and so many more. Hairspray is the hilarious, joyous, and inspiring musical for all!

Enter big hearted Tracy Turnblad and her friends as they dance their way into history in their quest to fight intolerance and racism. From the spirited Seaweed and his sister Little Inez to the charming Link Larkin and the resolute Motormouth Maybelle, witness a cast of characters who refuse to be silenced in the face of prejudice and discrimination, instead gaining acceptance and equality.

This fun-filled, feel-good show is bursting with show-stopping numbers and dizzying dance routines that you can’t help not to shimmy too!
