A screening of John Waters cult classic Hairspray. Part of Leeds Scalarama 2024.
THE WORLD WAS IN A MESS… BUT THEIR HAIR WAS PERFECT!!
Its Baltimore, 1962, and a rebellious teenager with the biggest bouffant on the block attempts to win the coveted "Miss Auto Show" crown as she fights against racial and body discrimination.
Though Hairspray is seen as John Waters most mainstream film. It's still packed the wit, rebellion, heart and bizarreness you come to expect and love from Mr Waters. It really is the perfect gateway to the Pope of Filth's work.
Film specific dress up encouraged and rewarded. Prizes for Best Costumes and Biggest and Most OTT Hair.
We will be located upstairs in the gorgeous Cardigan Arms.
Even though the film is a 12A. The Venue a 18+ venue in the evenings. So no under 18s.
No disabled access to the first floor.
