About the Show

Welcome to the '60s! Break out the Aqua Net and cheer on pleasantly plump Baltimore teen Tracy Turnblad as she pursues her dream to dance on the popular Corny Collins Show. Change is in the air as this loveable, larger-than-life heroine manages to replace the program's reigning princess, integrate the television show, and find true love - all while singing and dancing - and never mussing her hair.

Based on the New Line Cinema film written and directed by John Waters, the Broadway production of Hairspray won eight Tony Awards including Best Musical and Best Original Score. With music and lyrics by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, audiences will doo-wop along to upbeat songs such as "Good Morning, Baltimore," "I Can Hear the Bells," "Welcome to the '60s," and "You Can't Stop the Beat."

Tickets are $28 for adults, $25 for seniors (65 and older), $17 for students (with valid ID), and $10 for children (12 and under). An additional $3 service fee per ticket is applied at the time of purchase. Group discounts are available for parties of 13 or more.

Beck Center is located at 17801 Detroit Avenue in Lakewood, just ten minutes west of downtown Cleveland. Free onsite parking is available.
