Hairspray is the 2003 Tony Award® winner for Best Musical!

Based on filmmaker John Waters' affectionately subversive homage to his Baltimore youth, Hairspray takes place in 1962. Chubby Tracy Turnblad (Marissa Jaret Winokur, 2003 Tony winner for Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Musical) is transformed into a teen celebrity on a local TV dance program. With her irresistible stage mother (Harvey Fierstein, 2003 Tony winner for Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Musical) at her side, she attempts to win the heart of the local heartthrob and integrate “The Corny Collins Show” at the same time.

Title: Great Show!!!
Review: This show is so awesome!!! It is super funny, but yet is also deals with difficult issues like racism and and the idea of beauty. You should see the movie, buy the script, get the soundtrack and make a date night of seeing this show done live! If you don't, then you are missing out on a fabulous piece!!!!!

Title: Hairspray Fans - Don't Miss Out on Owning This Book
Review: OMG! I'm so excited. How did I miss this? I'm a huge fan of Hairspray (proud to say that I saw the musical 3 times to my sister's chagrin) and was devastated when they bowed out of Broadway. As much as I liked the movie versions, they weren't just the same. I always wished that they filmed the musical and put it on DVD. However, this book is a close second best. The book has the lyrics and script for the musical ONLY. It is set up in play format. There are no arrangements for the music or anything else. You have to get a separate book for that - Hairspray: Piano/Vocal Selections. In the center, there are 2 pages of images of the OBC. The quality of the book and pages are pretty sturdy. The font is a decent, readable size.For fans of the musical, this is a must have. It's like owning a piece of my favorite show in paper format. And I will be definitely pretending to act this out on a rainy day.

Title: Great Resource
Review: Wonderful resource for audition prep or if you're a fan of musical theatre! It's good to see what the actors read and the context around the songs if the soundtrack is all you have.

Review: Lively music, good quality recording as expected. Would recommend to anyone who likes the film with John Travolta but this is slightly different being from the stage show.

Review: If you have seen the Broadway show, or the touring version you already love Hairspray.This book has all the dialogue and the lyrics to the songs. If you have only seen the movie, the stage version is even funnier. A great buy for musical theatre fans.
