"If life were everything it should be, it would be more like Hairspray." —The New York Times

The Award-winning Broadway musical Hairspray is finally coming to Bloemfontein. FACTS, a local theatre company associated with the UFS Drama department, is staging this fun-filled, toe-tapping musical romp that inspires everyone who sees it to “dream big.”

Tracy Turnblad is a big girl with a big heart and even bigger hair, with one big wish - to dance. We follow Tracy as she sings and dances her way through the adversity of being ahead of her time in her own unassuming way. Along the way she finds acceptance and big romance with the teenage heart-throb Link Larkin.

The cast comprises of a mixture of seasoned professionals as well as honours and final year drama students. Some of the professionals to be seen in this production are Leendert de Jager (Edna Turnblad), Anton Smit (Wilbur Turnblad), Lezanda Visser (Velma von Tussle), Tshili Gude (Motormouth Maybelle), Quintus Aslett (Corny Collins) and Ilne Fourie (Prudy Pingleton). Making their professional debut in this FACTS production are Marnel Bester (Tracy Turnblad), Marli van der Bijl (Penny Pingleton), Heinie de Jager (Link Larkin) and Teddy Mhlambi (Seaweed J. Stubbs).

This Broadway phenomenon, that inspired a major blockbuster-film starring John Travolta, features delicious sing-along songs (under the music direction of Henri Liebenberg), breathtaking choreography (by Elize Cogle assisted by Godfrey Manenye) and spectacular vocals that will have you dancing in the aisles. Directed by Thys Heydenrych, this production promises to blow your socks off.

The show runs from the 29th of February till the 3rd of March in the Wynand Mouton Theatre. Tickets are R50 for adults and R40 for pensioners, students and scholars. Tickets are available at Computicket.

Hairspray is made possible by the generous donation from the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
