Big screen musicals are great, but nothing beats a song-and-dance stage
spectacle.
The newest production at the Stanley Theatre, Hairspray
has won eight Tony Awards and the hearts of countless theatregoers. Much
more than doo-wop and hairdos, the musical addresses social issues of
the 60s as it tells the story of a starry-eyed, pleasantly plump
Baltimore teenager.
Hairspray is proof that with big hair and big heart, anyone can
be a catalyst for big change.
We caught up backstage with one of its stars, recent New York transplant
J. Cameron Barnett. Watch the clip on our Editors
Diary.
Tickets from $29, at the Stanley Theatre until July 10, www.artsclub.com
