Sing-a-long-a Hairspray
09 September 7:30 PM
From the producers of Sing-a-long-a Sound of Music, a brand new Sing-a-long-a show featuring the 2007 film starring John Travolta as Edna Turnblad – Sing-a-long-a Hairspray – with lyrics on-screen so EVERYONE can join in.
It’s Baltimore and it’s 1962 – what better time and place for big-hearted Tracy Turnblad to indulge her passion for DANCING! A screening of the film of the smash-hit stage show (now running in the West End) with subtitles so everyone can join in, Sing-a-long-a Hairspray is a wild, noisy, fun filled experience. Dance in the aisles, boo Velma and be amazed at John Travolta’s fat suit. This is the show where no amount of hair products will stop you letting your hair down and there are NO RULES.
Starring John Travolta, Michelle Pfeiffer, Christopher Walken, Queen Latifah and our own live host, who will lead you through all the special magic moments.
Fancy dress not obligatory but highly recommended. Read more about this event … or
