What is Hairspray : the Movie Musical about?
Audiences have fallen in love with <i>Hairspray</i> and its heroine, Tracy Turnblad--a girl with big hair, big dreams and an even bigger heart--since John Waters created this original, subversively hilarious film in 1988. Next the hit Broadway musical won countless more fans and an armful of Tonys in 2003. Now <i>Hairspray</i> returns to the screen as an innovative movie musical from New Line Cinema, the producers of <i>Chicago</i>, and director-choreographer Adam Shankman. <br> This lavish companion book celebrates the singular phenomenon that is <i>Hairspray</i>, and the supremely talented cast and crew who brought this new incarnation to life. Features about the cast, locations, sets, and costumes give readers an intimate look behind the scenes. Here are profiles of <i>Hairspray's</i> extraordinary actors, all of whom do their own singing and dancing in the film. John Travolta stars in a career-bending twist as Edna Turnblad, the role created by the late Divine. The dream cast also includes Queen Latifah (Motormouth Maybelle), Michelle Pfeiffer (Velma Von Tussle), and Christopher Walken (Wilbur Turnblad) as well as rising young stars led by new talent Nikki Blonsky as Tracy. <br
