Oh my gosh in every way. I love that the Dynamites are named after the Broadway actors and not Peaches/Cindy Watkins/Pearl. And who are Samaire and Cynthia, did they replace Gilbert? So many questions!

This link was posted before. I can't find the thread though. The way the characters look is scary. I wonder how it is.

It's okay, we all do that sometime...I couldn't even find it in the search threads. But I remember seeing it before. Did you see some of the other shows Italy has put on by clicking on some cast members' bios?

I've never felt so proud to be Italian than right now.

I love that Seaweed's name in Italian becomes "Flipper J. Stubbs."
ETA: Oh, SNL beat me to it. Still - it seems a dolphin is a very odd leap from algae. And now I can't get that damn song out of my head - "They call him Flipper!/Flipper!"
I really hope Marc or the MD found a way to sneak it in somewhere. Maybe a funkified version in the "Run And Tell That" dance break?

It may seem odd that someone who co-wrote the SOUTH PARK movie would have trouble with people finding humor in something in extreme bad taste, but these pictures disgust and infuriate me.
How a bootleg version of the show got on is bad enough. But to see these horrifically racist photographs attached to something I have anything to do with repulses me. I guess I have finally found out there are some things that just aren't funny. At least to me. And, I dare say (or hope) not to a LOT of other people.
And if anyone ever sees ANYTHING like this out there in cyberworld pertaining to HAIRSPRAY, please PM me so I can contact our lawyers to put a stop to it right away.
The pictures in this thread are an example of something I hope the moderator or Craig or Rob will flush away from this board. I am even sorry to be writing this, knowing it will bring this thread back to the top of the board. From the bottom of my heart, I plead that no one else write on this thread. Let these images die.
