What is it up to these days. Did it close or is it still on the road? Are they done for the summer or are they going to send it back out? Anyone got any info?

I saw the tour in December 06 and this seems like a TOTALLY new cast. Good to see some new faces!

According to the website -- there ain't no one playin' Penny Pingleton.

Someone who has seen the tour needs to provide that info from their Playbill. re: Hairspray Tour

"Michael Walker, who plays Tracy's mother Edna, is another surprise twist."

I definitively saw Jerry and Angela in Moter-Mouth

the roll of Motormouth Maybelle

Was it a Kaiser roll? A Pimpernickel roll? A sourdough roll?

Oh, I think you meant to say 'role' as '... in the role of'. re: Hairspray Tour

And some say the education system in the United States sucks. How DARE there???!!!

Is this a freshly casted cast? On NETWORKS they have a spot reserved on there site to mention Atlanta auditions.

Brody, what is a "Pimpernickel" roll? Surely you mean "Pumpernickel."

Are you still going to school? If so, I really think you should ask for a refund.

Jerry O'Boyle has not been in the show for months; he is currently on medical leave. He may have been listed in your program, but he did not perform. The actor who played Edna, most likely Michael Walker, was listed on the understudy board.
