It's a musical set in the fifties about an overweight girl:Tracy

Tracy wants to be famous. She watches the T.V. and notices there are auditions for a T.V. show.

Meanwhile, one of the characters is Link Larkin. Tracy's "Soul mate"

Too bad Link is GOING Steady with Amber, a girl who is unexceptably mean to Stacy.

Stacy goes to the audition and after a rough time she gets on the show.

The show is hosting negro day and Tracy finds one of her friends from detention: Seaweed. Only he is black.

Stacy protests that blacks should be equal. Link finds it absolutely amazing and realizes he likes Tracy.

But too soon Tracy oversteps her bounds and is sent to Jail and kicked off the show for protesting.

But Stacy manages to come back in the end with Link, Seaweed and her best friend Penny (who is Seaweeds lover) and tell everyone..."YOU CAN'T STOP THE BEAT!"

it's a great musical.
