SUMMARY:Music Theater Works Presents “Hairspray\,” December 17 - January 3\, 2027 at the North Shore Center for the Performing Arts in Skokie
DESCRIPTION:Music Theater Works presents Hairspray\, in the George Van Dusen Theatre\, at the North Shore Center for the Performing Arts in Skokie\, 9501 Skokie Blvd.\, Skokie\, December 17 – January 3\, 2027. Hairspray has a book by Mark O’Donnell and Thomas Meehan\, music by Marc Shaiman\, lyrics by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman and is based on the New Line Cinema film written and directed by John Waters. Music Theater Works’ production is directed by Keely Vasquez\, choreographed by Reneisha Jenkins Matilla and music directed by Linda Madonia. Additionally\, Hairspray stars “RuPaul’s Drag Race” alum\, performer\, educator and advocate Mrs. Kasha Davis as “Edna Turnblad.” More information about the performances and special events planned around Hairspray\, visit MusicTheaterWorks.com. \nFull of heart and 1960s flair\, Hairspray follows Tracy Turnblad\, a big-dreaming teen who lands a spot on “The Corny Collins Show.” But when she sees injustice in Baltimore\, she sets out to integrate the dance floor\, proving one girl can make a difference. With infectious songs like “Good Morning Baltimore” and “You Can’t Stop the Beat\,” this musical makes the perfect closer to Music Theater Work’s 46th season: it is a joyful celebration of acceptance\, self-love and standing up for what’s right. \nThe performance schedule is Saturday\, Dec. 19 at 2 p.m.\, Sunday\, Dec. 20 at 2 p.m. (Post-show discussion)\, Tuesday\, Dec. 22 at 7 p.m.\, Wednesday\, Dec. 23 at 7 p.m.\, Saturday\, Dec. 26 at 2 p.m and 7 p.m. (ASL interpreted performance)\, Sunday\, Dec. 27 at 2 p.m. (Post-show discussion)\, Wednesday\, Dec. 30 at 2 p.m.\, Thursday\, Dec. 31 at 7 p.m.\, Saturday\, Jan. 2 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. and Sunday\, Jan. 3 at 2 p.m. There are no performances on Friday\, Jan. 1.

SUMMARY:Music Theater Works Presents “Hairspray\,” December 17 - January 3\, 2027 at the North Shore Center for the Performing Arts in Skokie
DESCRIPTION:Music Theater Works presents Hairspray\, in the George Van Dusen Theatre\, at the North Shore Center for the Performing Arts in Skokie\, 9501 Skokie Blvd.\, Skokie\, December 17 – January 3\, 2027. Hairspray has a book by Mark O’Donnell and Thomas Meehan\, music by Marc Shaiman\, lyrics by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman and is based on the New Line Cinema film written and directed by John Waters.

Additionally\, Hairspray stars “RuPaul’s Drag Race” alum\, performer\, educator and advocate Mrs. Kasha Davis as “Edna Turnblad.” More information about the performances and special events planned around Hairspray\, visit MusicTheaterWorks.com. \nFull of heart and 1960s flair\, Hairspray follows Tracy Turnblad\, a big-dreaming teen who lands a spot on “The Corny Collins Show.” But when she sees injustice in Baltimore\, she sets out to integrate the dance floor\, proving one girl can make a difference.
