The theatre group came into being in 2009, under the direction of Ash White, and has grown dramatically over seven years.

Hairspray The Musical’s original Broadway production opened in the summer of 2002 and the next year it won eight Tony Awards, including one for Best Musical. It ran for over 2,500 performances and closed on January 4, 2009.
