Exclusive Hairspray workshop from Theatre Workout!

Welcome to the 1960s! Its 1962 – the 1950s are out and change is in the air. Tracy Turnblad, a big girl with big hair and an even bigger heart, has only one passion – to dance. She wins a spot on the local TV dance programme and, overnight, is transformed from outsider to irrepressible teen celebrity.

This workshop, fully endorsed by Stage Entertainment, explores the main subjects, themes and characters in the show with reference to 1960’s American history, group scene studies and performance. Students will be taught a variety of theatre exercises to explore identity and teen culture before working in groups on songs and selected scenes from the show which are performed at the end of the workshop.

Themes: Equality, inclusion and exclusion, civil rights, music and teen culture, pursuing your dreams

Curriculum Links: Music and Drama, Literacy, Communication, American History, P.S.H.E. and Citizenship
