The World Youth Alliance (WYA) is a global coalition of young people committed to
promoting the dignity of the person and building solidarity among youth from developed and
developing nations. We train young people to work at the regional and international levels to

City) and North America (New York) and embraces over 1 million members from over 100

towards creating a deeper understanding of human dignity and the promotion of solidarity
among the world’s nations. All five regions will be staging their respective celebrations.

HAIRSPRAY The Musical




In Hairspray, it's 1962 - the '50s are out and change is in the air. Baltimore's 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 program, "The Corny Collins Show" and, overnight, is transformed from outsider to irrepressible teen celebrity. But can a trendsetter in dance and fashion vanquish the program's reigning princess, win the heart of heartthrob Link Larkin, and integrate a television show without denting her 'do? Only in Hairspray!

Welcome to the '60s!

The musical features an original score by Marc Shaiman (who co-wrote the music and lyrics for the acclaimed animated musical, South
Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut) and Scott Wittman. Their songs
take Tracy from the soundstage of a 60's-style dance show
to the streets of Baltimore to a downtown rhythm and blues
record shop.

Hairspray went on to win 8 Tony Awards including
Best Musical and has also become one of the most
successful and popular movie musicals starring
JohnTravolta, Zach Efron and Michelle Pfeiffer.

For its Philippine Tour, the Hairspray cast will be composed of Madel Ching, Micheal de Mesa,
Nyoy Volante, Tim Espinosa, Monica Reynoso, Christine Allado, Menchu Lauchenco-Yulo, and Dulce to name a few.
