"Hairspray" takes center stage

February 28, 2012


The Haverford School Upper School Drama and Music Departments presented “Hairspray” March 1-3 in Centennial Hall. Tracy Turnblad (Agnes Irwin School junior Phoebe Smukler), Link Larkin (Haverford School senior Zach Rego), Corny Collins (Haverford School senior Pat Meehan), and the rest of the cast sang their way through some of the social injustices of the 1960s. Musical numbers included, “Without Love,” “You Can’t Stop the Beat,” and “Welcome to the ’60s.” The cast featured drama students from The Academy of Notre Dame de Namur, The Agnes Irwin School, Baldwin, Downingtown West High School, The Haverford School, Hill Top Prep, Lower Merion High School, and Merion Mercy Academy.
