Broadway's Tony Award-winning musical-comedy phenomenon takes you back to 1962 Baltimore, as 16-year-old Tracy Turnblad sets out to dance her way onto TV's most popular show. This mega-hit is piled bouffant-high with laughter and romance - and enough deliriously tuneful new songs to fill a nonstop platter-party. 'Hairpsray' features music and lyrics by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, with a book by Mark O'Donnell and Thomas Meehan. Featured songs include; 'Good Morning Baltimore,' 'The Nicest Kids in Town,' 'Mama, I'm a Big Girl Now,' 'Welcome to the 60's' and 'You Can't Stop the Beat.'

Foreigner

Comedy in which Charlie, a painfully shy Englishman passes himself off as a non-English speaker. Because everyone assumes that he can't actually understand them, he really "gets an earful" as characters speak their deepest thoughts to him, and members of the Ku Klux Klan plot openly in front of him. Of course, it all ends hilariosly.
