HAIRSPRAY

So, Drew and I have been working on a show for the past month and we open this week. It's the musical HAIRSPRAY and we are both performing in it and I did the choreography. The original Broadway production opened on Broadway 2002 and the movie musical version came out in Summer of 2007. Most people know the show from the movie version and maybe even the broadway production. But I know the show from the original John Waters 1988 non-musical movie with Ricki Lake. This movie was a part of my childhood in a big way. I LOVED this movie and can quote most of it. I love the 60's, the dancing, the hair, make-up...etc. It's been really cool to be a part of this show and think back on how happy Hairspray makes me : ).
