Hairspray

Hairspray closed January 4, 2009, but you can still buy tickets to all the other shows at NYC.com. Our original review follows:

Harvey Fierstein and Marissa Jaret Winokur return for the final weeks of the show; don't miss out!

With big girls, big hair, and even bigger laughs, comes Hairspray, a splashy new musical based on the 1988 John Waters film. It's 1962 and Baltimore teen Tracy Turnblad has only one dream--to dance on the popular Corny Collins Show. When her dream comes true, Tracy is transformed from social outcast to sudden star, but she must use her newfound power to vanquish the reigning teen queen, win the affections of heartthrob Link Larkin and intergrate a TV network, all without denting her 'do!
