"If there were local Tony Awards, this CVLT production would surely be a 
winner."
- The Chagrin Valley Times

Based on the 1988 John Waters film, and punched by Marc Shaiman's score, 
Scott Wittman's lyrics and a book by Mark O'Donnell and Thomas Meehan, 
this multi-Tony winning musical is sure to get you laughing and tapping 
your feet to its 60s-style dance music R&B.

It's 1962 in Baltimore, Maryland, and plump, spunky teen Tracy Turnblad 
dreams of dancing on The Corny Collins Show, a local TV dance program 
based.

When Tracy wins a role on the show, she becomes a celebrity overnight. 
She then launches a campaign to integrate the show, which has always 
held a separate day for the non-white kids.

/HAIRSPRAY/ is a whirlwind show about discovering yourself, overcoming 
social injustice, and the power of music to unite. It's also a heck of a 
good time!

by Mark Dunn

Directed by Barbara L. Rhoades

Playwright Mark Dunn would like to introduce you to the Walker sisters 
of Tennessee in his comedy, BELLES. Since the death of their father, 
they have spread out across the USA and now reside in Memphis, TN.; 
Philadelphia, PA; Atlanta, GA; Collierstown, MS; Elk Run, WA.; and 
Austin, TX. Over the course of one weekend, the six of them make dozens 
of phone calls to each other, which audiences will be invited to listen 
in on at CVLT's River Street Playhouse.

Peggy, the eldest sister (Yvonne E. Pilarczyk), has become their 
mother's caretaker, and she calls each of her sisters to inform them 
that Mama's been hospitalized after eating some bad tuna. Aneece (Denise 
Larkin), the antisocial banker in Philadelphia, struggles with building 
and maintaining relationships with Mama and her other sisters. Audrey 
(Jenny Barrett) is a fledgling ventriloquist whose life takes a turn for 
the worse when her dummy goes missing. Roseanne (Claudia Lillibridge), a 
minister's wife and mother of two, finds herself in the midst of a 
crumbling marriage. Then there's the sister whose name keeps changing: 
Sherry "Dust" Walker (Sarah Doody), the New Age yoga and tofu-eating nut 
job. Lastly, there's Paige (Macey Staninger), the baby of the family, 
who is a graduate student studying Chaucer with her eyes on "Mr. 
Perfection." Their phone calls lead to comedic and often brutal 
confrontations about the past and present.
