Congrats Hairspray cast and crew!
"The Tony-winning score by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman impresses more deeply on second listen, convincingly evoking nearly every 1960s musical genre. It compares favorably with that great 1960s-pastiche standard-bearer, ''Little Shop of Horrors.''
Few closing numbers are as rousing ''You Can't Stop the Beat,'' which features thrilling and gutsy drumming and a chorus that begs to be sung on the way out the theater."
