About

Winner of eight Tony(R) Awards including Best Musical, Best Original Score, Best Direction and Best Male and Female Lead to name a few, it's "Hairspray!" The year's '62 and Baltimore's Tracy Turnblad is going to do whatever it takes to dance her way onto TV's most popular show. Can a big girl with big dreams--and even bigger hair--turn the whole town around and still have time to win the boy she loves? Don't miss this dancing, romancing musical-comedy treat based on John Waters' 1988 film classic, with a book by Mark O'Donnell and two-time Tony Award-winner Thomas Meehan and a brand-new score by five-time Oscar-nominee Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman.

    Great musical

    by Jang on 12/3/22Ocean City Performing Arts Center - Ocean City

    This was a great show that we saw in OC, MD. The scenery and props were not the best (for the cost of the show) but the actors were fabulous!

    The show was excellent!

    by Eileen on 12/1/22Hackensack Meridian Health Theatre at the Count Basie Center - Red Bank

    The show was excellent however the Count Basey seating in balcony was the most uncomfortable ever!!! We are all tall and could not sit comfortably therefore we left the theatre at intermission We could not sit straight. Our knees were hitting people in front of us We had to move to an empty space and spread out sitting sideways!!!! NEVER EVER did we experience this at any NY Theatre. Seats were not cheap either We will NEVER return to Count Basey again!!!!

    by Cynthia on 5/18/22The National Theatre - Washington

    The cast was magnificent; the performance was over way too soon! The musical score tremendous. The standing ovation the entire theatre gave them was totally justified! A must-see production!!

    Not to be missed!

    by DC Broadway Fan on 5/18/22The National Theatre - Washington

    From the opening notes through the encore, we were mesmerized. Top notch cast. High energy. Fun costumes and sets. One of the best shows I’ve seen, and I’ve seen many. We were singing and dancing not just the whole way home, but still are days later. Go see this show!

    unfortunate

    by Teresa Lum on 5/18/22The National Theatre - Washington

    I was not able to see the show. There was a protest in DC with over 17,000 protestors and all drivable access was blocked. I contacted the National Theatre who informed me I could not be compensated because I called them on Monday to report the incident. The show had already left the theatre. It was disappointing that no announcement was made to ticket holders for the 2pm show on the 14th. It was announced in various media forum 2 days before the protest yet nothing was announced to ticket holders.

    Amazing!

    by DC Hairspray Fan on 5/18/22The National Theatre - Washington

    This cast is incredibly talented! Yes - the story differed a Tad bit from the movie but there’s only so much the stage performance can handle instead of a movie set. We loved every second of the show. The happy energy was contagious. I recommend 1000 %!

    Simply The Best

    by Benno on 5/17/22The National Theatre - Washington

    As a fan of the franchise of Hairspray, from the first movie, to now the Broadway show, was simply an amazing experience. I felt like I was taken back to the 60’s for a good laugh! I’ve waited for yrs to see it & I’m glad DC brought to us. The show was definitely a BIG HAIR success.

    Energetic Cast

    by G. C. on 5/16/22The National Theatre - Washington

    The show is energetic, but the storyline was like only 30% of the Hairspray we know. Traci, Mama Turnblad, and MotorMouth Mabel gave memorable performances, but the original refs would have been appreciated...the dances, etc.

    Spectacular!!

    by JB on 5/15/22The National Theatre - Washington

    Spectacular, amazing, and fun. Nina West was so funny. She was born for Broadway. I couldn’t stop smiling.
