CRY-BABYAPRIL 10-26, 2026
AT COHOES MUSIC HALL
POLIO SHOTS. PROM QUEENS. AND A REBEL WITH A ROCKABILLY HEART.
Good girls want him. Bad girls want to be him. And Baltimore’s about to blow its square little lid. In this razor-sharp, rockabilly musical satire, Wade “Cry-Baby” Walker leads a gang of tattooed outcasts, orphan punks, and delinquent weirdos in a war against clean-cut 1950’s conformity. The crime? Loving too loud. Dancing too dirty. And standing up to the man. From the twisted minds of John Waters and the creators of Hairspray, CRY-BABY: THE MUSICAL is a trashy, tuneful takedown of 1950s repression—with rockabilly guitars, chain-link fences, and girls with switchblades. Don’t bring your parents. Or do. Whatever makes ‘em squirm.
“Campy, cynical, totally insincere and fabulously well-crafted. And funny. Madly, outrageously funny.” – Wall Street Journal
“Pleasantly demented… true to the cheerful subversion of a John Waters movie.” – Newsday
