I was doing some searching and came across this picture of the "Hefty Hideaway" facade.
I added it to the Hairspray blog- but I will just post it here so you guys dont feel forced to go to it.
Pretty cool I think.
I also posted a rendering I did of a few months ago of the "Hefty Hideaway."
I find it ironic we both have them on street corners.

Cool pictures. But it's coincidence not irony.

Posted: 8/24/06 at 3:08pmany significance behind the number 618? I was thinking the date June 18th but it really just could be a number. :)

I wonder if Vincent Peranio is designing these?

Thanks for the new shot, and I LOVE your own rendering of the Hideaway! Very nice job.

hahaha, thanks best12bars!
I dont believe Vincent Peranio is working on this hairspray at all.
I know Gordon Sim is the set decorator but I am not sure who the designer is.
I read once it was Aleksandra Marinkovich and David Fremlin as a team, but I am not really sure.

I could ask the guy who took this. I assume somewhere in TO.
I asked if he will take more photos, and he said "just as soon as more things are up...which should be a few more days."

Great photo! And the rendering is fab, mateo.
I love that they included the "Parking In Rear" directive on the sign just as it is in the stage production. Does anyone remember if that was also in the film?

It will be big and colorful, just in a differnt way.
I dont think there was a "parking in the rear" sign in the original. But its cute that its there in this one. :)

Ok, someone on IMDB posted that it was on or around the corner of Dundas West and Roncesvalle Avenue.
Tag, when can you get there?? :)

"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott

Posted: 8/24/06 at 5:51pmAny idea how they're going to style this production? Is it going to be done still sort of cartoony and stylized - maybe like Pleasantville, but more cartoony and kooky? Or are they trying to set it in realism?

I think 'Hairspray' will be as close to realism as you can get for a musical. Less 'Producers' more 'Dreamgirls.'
I mention it a little on the blog. Like when Marc (bless his heart) put pictures of costumes here, some people said "ehhh, they arent as fun as the musicals." This upset the Costume Designer a little bit. Yet really most poeple did like them, and the pictures DID enhance peoples interest in the movie.
But the Costume Designer felt he had to defend his work (which is no fun) and I think he, (I assume he) said it best with, "Be assured that this movie will look real AND fabulous."
So, I think we can assume the sounds and fun of the stage production with the look and heart of the original film.
