It was a bad hair day for the national tour of the Tony Award-winning Best Musical Hairspray when an accidental activation of the Buell Theatre sprinkler system derailed its Denver opening night.
The Tuesday night performance was canceled due to water damage, with the fate of the Wednesday evening performance pending as theatre staff assess the situation.
Heidi Bosk, a DCPA spokesperson, said in a statement, “Upon further review, we have determined that we need one more day to complete our load-in and thoroughly test our systems to ensure that we can provide the quality production our community is accustomed to.”
DCPA will contact ticket holders to the Tuesday and Wednesday evening performances to arrange exchanges and refunds.
