Hairspray only ran for It ran for 2,642 performances. Given that she didn't tour with the show, your assertion that she performed the role more than 4000 times is a fallacy. She gave just north of 1000 performances as Tracy

First of all, excuse me about my english, I'm mexican so I'm not really good in this language. Well, I have many Hairspray versions, all of them are in the same key. I supose the tune and rythm was modified for the film, as is common in the films about musicals to print some difference to make it attractive to audience. Anyway, I enjoy Hairspray.
