Set in 1962 Baltimore, HAIRSPRAY follows the unstoppable Tracy Turnblad, a big-hearted teen with big dreams of dancing on “The Corny Collins Show.” When Tracy lands a spot on the program, she becomes an overnight sensation, and quickly realizes she can use her newfound platform to challenge racial segregation and redefine beauty standards. Packed with beloved songs like “Good Morning Baltimore,” “You Can’t Stop the Beat,” and “I Know Where I’ve Been,” Hairspray is a high-octane musical comedy that continues to resonate with audiences of all ages. Beneath its infectious joy and humor lies a powerful message about inclusion, equity, and the importance of using your voice, making it as relevant today as ever; and at New Village Arts, you’re not just watching The Corny Collins Show… You’re IN it!

With so many artists making their New Village Arts debuts in this 'Hairspray,' there is a palpable sense of excitement and discovery throughout the evening, complementing the musical's themes of young people finding their voices and stepping into the spotlight.
New Village Arts (NVA) has announced it's production of Hairspray which will be in performances later this summer. As the largest production in NVA’s history, this staging is noted to raise the bar for what’s possible on the Ray Charles.
