A LOOK BACK AT 2007:

Book by MARK O'DONNELL & THOMAS MEEHAN
Music by MARC SHAIMAN
Lyrics by SCOTT WITTMAN & MARC SHAIMAN
Based on the New Line Cinema film written
and directed by JOHN WATERS

Directed & Choreographed by Donna Drake

Hairspray is based upon the New Line Cinema film written
and directed by John Waters, with a book by Mark O'Donnell
and Thomas Meehan, music by Marc Shaiman, and lyrics by
Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman. In Hairspray it's 1962 - the
'50s are out and change is in the air. Baltimore's Tracy Turnblad,
a big girl with big hair and an even bigger heart, has only one passion
– to dance. She wins a spot on the local TV dance program, "The Corny
Collins Show" and, overnight, is transformed from outsider to irrepressible
teen celebrity. But can a trendsetter in dance and fashion vanquish the pro-
gram's reigning princess, win the heart of heartthrob Link Larkin, and integrate
a television show without denting her 'do? Only in Hairspray! Welcome to the
'60s! The musical features an original score by Marc Shaiman and Scott Witt-
man. Their songs take Tracy from the soundstage of a '60s-style dance show
to the streets of Baltimore to a downtown rhythm and blues record shop.
