The new North American tour of Hairspray, launching November 12 in Yakima, Washington, has announced the full cast that will be joining the previously announced principal trio of Andrew Levitt (aka Nina West), Niki Metcalf, and Toneisha Harris.

Stubbs, Kaelee Albritton as Amber Von Tussle, Addison Garner as Velma Von Tussle, Christopher Swan as Wilbur Turnblad, and Kaléa Leverette as Little Inez.

“It’s a brand-new world we find ourselves in today, and Hairspray is even more relevant than twenty years ago when it first burst onto the scene. With the renewed, refreshed energy of the unforgettable “Nina West” as Edna and a whole new generation of wildly talented kids across the board, we cannot wait to raise the various roofs once more with dance, joy, music, and that glorious, famous, energy-packed score,” said Jack O'Brien who helms the production along with choreographer Jerry Mitchell.

The touring production will visit over 60 cities in first season. The Tony-winning musical has a score by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman and a book by Thomas Meehan and Mark O'Donnell.

The non-Equity tour is produced by NETworks Presentations.
