Okay so I haven't seen this play nor any Broadway play for that matter but I am DYING to see what the movie is like when it comes out in July


I AM a huuuuuuge broadway music lover and my favorite right now is Rent. I can sing EVERY song by heart.

Has anyone seen Hairspray the play and are you as excited as me that the movie is coming out?

What other plays have you guys seen?

I've seen Gilbert & Sullivans HMS Pinafore and Trial by Jury in the one show. The only good thing my ex actually did for me.

What, there's another movie coming out? There was one years ago with Ricki Lake in it, and it was great!

I adore Rent and absolutely loved Mama Mia! It was the best!

Yeah this has John Travolta in in! This is the blog for it, I don't think it has an actual website yet:

http://www.hairspraymovie.com/blog/

But check out John's costume!

John Waters made the original movie with Rikki Lake. The Broadway play was based on the movie. And now, they are making a movie based on the play which was based on the movie.

Bizarre.

I don't know if I want to see the Travolta version because I have such a fondness for the original Waters film.

I saw the old one way back when, with Ricki Lake and I loved that one!! As far as musicals, never have been to one.

I'm another one who saw HAIRSPRAY with Ricki Lake in it. THE Broadway shows I've seen are THE LION KING. BEAUTY AND THE BEAST and MAMA MIA! Loved them all, especially THE LION KING.
