Panel and Discussion Guide

HAIRSPRAY is a fun and lively show written in the 1980’s set in the 1960’s. There are many positive themes and messages but there are some difficult scenes and language that some viewers may find problematic, especially for younger audiences. With this is mind, Suzart has taken the initiative to produce a discussion guide to help start a community dialogue. We have also produced a video panel of local experts discussing the musical in depth. 

Please review the Guide Here and continue to engage with the Ottawa Theatre Community.
