A dozen actors in this summer’s Theatre Under the Stars production at Stanley Park will see their runs extended.

Last week, the company announced it had held over the musicals Hairspray and Oliver! for a week.

That means both shows will run alternating days until TUTS closes Aug. 29. It is the second time TUTS has officially pushed its schedule in its 70-year history at Malkin Bowl.

Hairspray stars Coquitlam triple threat Ryan Purdy (pictured on left) as Tracy Turnblad’s father, Wilbur, while Port Moody teen Nathan Piasecki takes on The Artful Dodger in Oliver!

Other Tri-City actors in the two spectacles include Nolan Fahey, Julia MacLean, Damon Calderwood, Blake Sartin, Britney Buren, Lucas Crandall, Nicol Spinola, Tiana Jung and Lyndsey Britten.
