They can't stop for a breather
Now with September rehearsals under its belt, the company has succeeded in rehearsing act one in its entirety and is now working on perfecting the complex dance routines.
Under choreographer Louise Denison’s experienced direction, the society starts on the most important part of the show this weekend – the big spectacular singing and dancing finale You Can’t Stop The Beat.

The cast of Hairspray is one of the biggest that the players have hosted to date, with more than 50 playing members.
The company chose to lower the age restriction for this production due to the character range required, so for many of the members it will be their first time performing with the society.
Hairspray will be performed at the Harrogate Theatre between Wednesday October 31 and Saturday November 3.
