Overview

Originally written and directed by filmmaker John Waters in 1988, and then put on Broadway, the camp musical HAIRSPRAY could easily have run it's course with viewers. But thanks to playful direction, flashy costumes, over-the-top performances, and a positive message of peace, this newest spin proves to be yet another enjoyable incarnation. Set in 1960s Baltimore, the story follows a plump young girl named Tracy Turnblad (played by impressive newcomer Nikki Blonski) on an amazing journey as her dream of dancing on the popular Corny Collins Show becomes a reality. Soundtrack English; Deluxe Edition; CD Included Starring John Travolta, Nicole Blonsky, Christopher Walken, Michelle Pfeiffer, Director Adam Shankman Runtime: 117 Minutes
