Actors' Playhouse Kicks Off the 2011-2012 "You Can't Stop the Beat" Season
with the Tony Award-winning Smash Broadway Hit-Musical Hairspray

Hairspray, Broadway's musical-comedy phenomenon with so much heart and soul that it also inspired a major motion picture. A joyous tribute to the ‘60's, this intelligent and hilarious musical has the most fun Broadway score in recent years. It's 1962, and pleasantly plump Baltimore teen Tracy Turnblad has only one desire, to dance on the popular "Corny Collins Show". When her dream comes true, Tracy is transformed from social outcast to sudden star, but she must use her new found power to vanquish the reigning teen queen, win the affections of her heartthrob Link Larkin and integrate a TV network - all without denting her ‘do!

Actors' Playhouse's own Carbonell Award-winning Artistic Director David Arisco will grace the Mainstage as Edna Turnblad, Tracy's larger-than-life mother. Join Actors' Playhouse as they kick off the 2011 - 2012 "You Can't Stop the Beat" Season with the funniest, zaniest, happiest show in town!
