Hairspray launched a UK tour on 30th March opening at Cardiff with Michael Ball reprising his cross-dressing role as Edna Turnblad at certain venues.

Hairspray is based on the 1988 film comedy. The musical takes place in 1962 with Baltimore’s Tracy Turnblad (a large girl with big hair and a large heart) who wants to dance.

She wins a spot on the 'The Corny Collins Show' which is a local television programme, and overnight becomes a teenage celebrity. But can she overthrow the programme's reigning princess Amber Von Tussle, whose overbearing mother produces the show.

They are both excited about a Corny Collins Spectacular: Live from the Eventorium, sponsored by Ultra Clutch Hairspray. The girl on the show who gets the highest popularity rating will be crowned Miss Teenage Hairspray - and Amber wants that crown.

The catchy score of Hairspray (including "You Can't Stop the Beat") takes Tracy from the sound stage of a ‘60's dance show to the streets of Baltimore and on to a downtown rhythm and blues record shop.

The dates when Michael Ball, Brian Conley and Michael Starke will be playing the part of Edna are detailed below. Les Dennis will appear as the lovable Wilbur Turnblad.
