Hairspray comes to The Muny from June 15 to June 21, 2026. Set in 1962 Baltimore, it follows Tracy Turnblad, a plus-size teenager with dreams of dancing on The Corny Collins Show. As she rises from social outcast to star, Tracy seeks to challenge the status quo and integrate the show while vying for the affections of heartthrob Link Larkin. This Tony Award-winning musical, based on John Waters' cult classic film, features vibrant dance numbers and a heartfelt message about acceptance and change.
