… even if you wanted to. You can’t stop the motion of the ocean or the rain from above or, especially, the national tour of “Hairspray” that stops Feb. 23-25 at Hancher Auditorium in Iowa City and Feb. 28 at North Iowa Area Community College in Mason City.

The feel-good musical about some nice Baltimore kids who just wanna dance may be exactly what you need to pull through the end of February.
