Broadway hit Hairspray is proving without doubt to be the West End smash of the year.
A winner of four Olivier awards in 2007, the new musical has been a huge success with fans and critics alike.
The stage version of the popular John Waters film stars Michael Ball as Edna Turnblad, ably supported by newcomer Leanne Jones as daughter Tracy.
It's 1962, and change is in the air. Tracy, a big girl with big hair and a huge heart, wins a spot on the local TV dance contest and sets about winning over the public.
Can she upstage the current dance queen, win over heartthrob Link Larkin and survive the rigour sof live television without spoiling her hair?
The acclaimed show has broken box office records at the Shaftesbury Theatre, receiving regular standing ovations, say promoters.
For those wishing to see this Hairspray themselves this summer, regular Chiltern Railways services operate into London Marylebone station.
Performances last approximately 2 hours 40 minutes, with a 15 minute intermission.
Tickets range between £22 and £87.
Visitors to the capital can make huge savings of up to 33 per cent by purchasing a Chiltern Railways London Night Out ticket.
