Set in 1954 Baltimore, Cry-Baby, The Musical follows Wade “Cry-Baby” Walker, the coolest bad boy in town, whose charm and love for rock and roll challenge the status quo. When Allison, a prim and proper rich girl, falls for Cry-Baby and his ragtag gang, the Drapes, she ditches her straight-laced boyfriend, Baldwin, igniting a clash between the Squares and the Drapes.

As love blossoms and tensions rise, the city erupts into a riotous tale of rebellion, heartbreak, and forbidden romance. With a rollicking rockabilly score featuring songs like “The Anti-Polio Picnic” and “Girl, Can I Kiss You with Tongue,” this politically charged cult classic blends sharp humor with infectious energy.
