Photo Flash: First Look at Spanaway Lake High School's HAIRSPRAY
Spanaway Lake High School rocks you into the 60's with the hilarious musical, HAIRSPRAY. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
Winner of eight Tony Awards including Best Musical, HAIRSPRAY is a splashy musical piled bouffant-high with laughter and sprayed with a sheen of romance. It's 1962 and pleasantly plump Baltimore teen Tracy Turnblad has only one dream-to dance on television's popular Corny Collins Show where white kids dance to black music. Her Mom, Edna, shy and withdrawn, is dismayed at Tracy's obsession. The TV show clearly has prejudices against overweight teens as well as being staunchly against integration on the dance floor. Against all odds, Tracy's dream comes true, and she is transformed overnight from outsider to teen celebrity. Can a larger-than-life adolescent manage to vanquish the program's reigning princess, integrate the television show, and find true love (singing and dancing all the while, of course!) without mussing her hair?
Hairspray is directed by Chris Serface, choreographed by Charles Simmons, and musically directed by Nicholas Gorne. It features over 30 of Spanaway Lake High School's best students!
HAIRSPRAY runs now until Sunday, May 8, 2016. Thursday through Saturday showings are at 7:00pm and Sundays at 2:00pm. This show is recommended for all ages. Sunday, May 8th is Mother's Day so all mothers and daughters will be recognized!
Tickets are $7.00 with ASB and $10.00 for all others. Tickets may be purchased in person at the auditorium. All performances are held at Spanaway Lake High School, 1305 168th Street East, Spanaway, WA 98387
