Atlantis Productions, the same company that brought you Rent, Avenue Q and Cinderella, now brings the BIG FAT Broadway Musical Hit live on stage!
A winner of 8 Tony Awards including BEST MUSICAL, Hairspray is set to stage in Manila, following a hugely successful run in Broadway and London's West End.
Based on the New Line Cinema film written and directed by John Waters, with a book by Mark O'Donnel and Thomas Meehan, music by Marc Shaiman, and lyrics by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, Hairspray follows the fortunes, or misfortunes, of the heavy-set Tracy Turnblad, who is determined to become a star dancer on the Corny Collins TV pop show.
In 2007, Hairspray was remade into a musical film starring John Travolta as Edna Turnblad, Michelle Pfeiffer as Velma Von Tussle, Queen Latifah as "Motormouth" Maybelle and introducing Nikki Blonsky as the pleasantly plump teenager Tracy Turnblad.

ReplyDeleteI wonder who will be the dynamites???.... and tracy???...
ReplyDeleteI saw an article in PhilStar about the girl who's playing Tracy! I think she's an unknown.
ReplyDeleteStef, Otania (oats) here. I just re-checked the seating plan and you're right, I may want to change to somewhere closer to the middle. *hehe*
ReplyDeleteWill text you again should I get more people to join me.
Can't wait!
Thanks, Oats! Will be holding the seats on the left side of rows K & L for you. I hope you can bring more friends. Hehe!
ReplyDeleteJust saw your LJ blog entry about the Nov. 15, 8 pm show. I'm soooo happy! Thank you again.
MS Excel doesn't seem to be cooperating with me. Sorry for the odd looking Seat Plan. I'll try to make it look better tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI will be changing the blog's theme soon.
ReplyDeleteStef, noticed that you revamped your blog. Looks great! Love the color theme too. :D
ReplyDeleteAlso, what are you talking about? The updated seat plan looks great. :)
Oh, and hope you got my email regarding my concern for row J (if there's a railing at the balcony that may somewhat block my view when looking at the stage from up there?).
Please let me know if you got that email. Thanks. :) Still can't wait!
Oats, I just finished sending you an email. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks about your good words about the seat plan. I was thinking of making the seats clickable but it's too much work! Haha! That'll do for now.
Good seats are running out fast. Reserve yours now!
ReplyDeleteTicket deliveries have already started. Buy your Nov 15, 8pm tickets now before they run out.
ReplyDeleteYay!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait!
I'm so excited!
Hi, Chax! When should we meet again for your 2 extra tickets?
ReplyDeleteSana maulit ang Hairspray dito sa Philippines!!!
