Be a part of this amazing show!
If you are a singer, dancer, actor, or just want to try something a little different, then this is the show for you!
Take a journey back to 1960’s Baltimore…Big Hair, Big Dancing, Big Personalities! Follow the journey of Tracy Turnblad, a teenager with all the right moves, is obsessed with the Corny Collins Show. Every day after school, she and her best friend Penny run home to watch the show and drool over the hot Link Larkin, much to Tracy's mother Edna's dismay. After one of the stars of the show leaves, Corny Collins holds auditions to see who will be the next person on the Corny Collins show. With all of the help of her friend Seaweed, Tracy makes it on the show, angering the evil dance queen Amber Von Tussle and her mother Velma. Tracy then decides that it's not fair that the black kids can only dance on the Corny Collins Show once a month, and with the help of Seaweed, Link, Penny, MotormouthMaybelle, her father and Edna, she's going to integrate the show.....without denting her 'do!
