About the show
The musical is set in Baltimore 1962, following the story of Tracy Turnblad as she tries to dance her way onto national television.
After a successful audition, Tracy becomes a local star and soon uses her newly-found fame to campaign for equality following comments made about her size.
You can expect comical moments and catchy songs and the humorous Edna Turnblad, Tracy’s mum, who is traditionally played by a male actor.
The musical is based on the original 1988 film of the same name which starred Divine and Ricki Lake.
The production has already been on two UK tours in 2015-2016 and 2017-2018, selling out lots of venues along the way.
