Lyrics Scott Wittman
A big, beautiful Broadway hit! It's 1962. The 50s are out, and Baltimore is ready for change! Trendsetting teenager Tracy Turnblad has big hair, a big heart and an even bigger dream - to dance on "The Corny Collins Show." When her once-in-a-lifetime opportunity arrives, she grooves her way from outsider to instant teen celebrity. But she'll need the help of a cast of crazy characters to really shake things up! Can she dethrone the program's reigning princess, integrate the show's dance floor and find true love without denting her 'do? Find out if a toe-tapping beat and a whole lot of hairspray is enough to make a dream come true. Featuring hits such as "Mama, I'm a Big Girl Now," "You Can't Stop the Beat" and "Good Morning, Baltimore."
The Student Prince
August 3-8
Music by Sigmund Romberg
Book and Lyrics by Dorothy Donnelly
Based on the play "Old Heidelberg" by Rudolf Bleichman
He's royalty. She's not. Their unlikely romance is one of operetta's greatest love stories! Bored with royal life, Prince Karl sets off to finish his studies and find a freedom far away from the mythical kingdom of Karlsberg. Surrounded by fellow students, the Prince finds himself swept away by the sights, the sounds and the sentimental song of Kathie, the innkeeper's daughter. Their friendship gives way to true love, but when news arrives that the king has died; Prince Karl must return home for his coranation and his wedding! Will he honor an arranged marriage with a proper Princess or abandon his kingdom for Kathie? The show's majestic score features the timeless "Golden Days," "Deep In My Heart" and the celebrated "Drinking Song."
