Murray, Ky. – In 1960s Baltimore, the 50s are out, and change is in the air. This weekend, Murray's Playhouse in the Park opens "Hairspray." Based on the 1988 film by John Waters, this musical comedy takes on society's injustices and the many forms of prejudice. Director Lisa Cope and Murray State freshman and cast member Aaron Jones joined Jacque Day for this discussion.

"Hairspray" runs Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays through March 6. Visit the Playhouse in the Park website for showtimes and more.
