Ha. Well, it is a thread about Hairspray love. If you do six degrees of Hairspray love you get Marc Shaiman. Marc wrote Martin's show so there. I will miss seeing Marc in that Estelle get up. Marc Shaiman is very funny. I hope he performs in another show soon. He is hysterical. (la la la la)
Corine -- if you saw the show last Sunday, (1/7) then you didn't see Diana DeGarmo. She's out until Friday, I believe! I just read on your blog how much you loved her as Penny, but you saw Leslie Goddard play the part. Looks like you may have to go again before February!
I'm sad to see Aaron Tveit and Lisa Jolley go. She cracks me up, and she's the first Matron I've heard who can actually SING!
I LOVE Hairspray!!! I just saw it in the end of December, and fell inlove with it!!!! there wasn't one part where I wasn't smiling or laughing. =D would see it again in seconds!

bunger12, I'm pretty sure she said she saw it Saturday, so she did see Diana DeGarmo.
I adore Hairspray. Everything about that show is great. It's got a great score and book and is just a ton of fun. Great cast too, from the leads to the ensemble. I adored Shannon, Tevin and Diana in it. Tevin/Diana are adorable together and have great chemistry onstage (probably my top Seaweed/Penny pairing).
I LOVE HAIRSPRAY!!! I FELL IN LOVE WITH IT 9 MONTHS BEFORE I SAW IT!! im the worst one...haha...

I saw it twice on Broadway (with the original cast) and just last month in Iowa City, Iowa with a friend. He told me he was on a "Hairspray High" for several days afterwards! It looks like it's coming to Cedar Rapids (for one night only) on October 31.
I think that HAIRSPRAY may be the equivalent to crack. It's SOOOOOO addictive! I wore my CD out so much that I Know Where I've Been doesn't play all the way through! I hope that when the rights become available a local theatre will produce so I can be in it! I LOVE THE 'SPRAY!
i asked my music director, but we dont have enough diversity...
