I originally disliked Harvey Fierstein's performance as Edna, it felt to much like "oh i'm on stage i gotta act for people" rather than him actually acting, but then I realized. This isn't him trying to act, this is him acting as Edna trying to act. It sounds stupid but it's just layered acting which is great and something that not even John Travolta did or probably even thought of.

I wanna know how “Amber” could dance with that wig/hair 😂😂

HOLD UP! IS THAT WILL SCHUESTER PLAYING LINK?!

Hairspray is everything a musical should be. Its glorious, happy and makes you wish the world could be that way.

No matter what role she's in, Kerry Bulter will always be one of my faves on Broadway. She can just immediately steal any scene.

The girl who plays Penny has the best voice omg it's so great

You Can't Stop the Beat is perhaps one of the most exciting finales I have seen on a stage! The NBC version earlier this month was the best Hairspray ever. RIP Dick Latessa and does anyone notice Harvey's finale costume looks a bit like the costume for the NBC version?

i saw this many times, but got lottery tickets (front row) the night before it closed. The original cast, at this song, they tried to get me to come on stage, since I knew the dance. But due to a knee injury (tumor in my knee removed) I wasn't able to jump on stage and join in. Did get most of the cast to sign my Playbill, and Marissa Jaret Winoker signed my ticket. Was amazing... its funny, every time I saw a broadway musical, i had issues with my phone so never got pictures with anyone... at least i got there signatures tho!On a side note this seems like its broken up a bit, it should be straight through Tracy, Penny/Seaweed, Edna, MotorMouth Maybelle, Amber 🕸

The people who were born when this number was performed are now old enough to vote. Let that sink in.

Oh my gosh, I never noticed that Tracey, when Maybelle throws off the trousers, looks in amazement at her dress and then shrugs and continues dancing!!

I can hear Shoshana Bean even with her just being in the ensemble... that woman has a voice that can cut thru steel!! LOVE THIS CAST SO MUCH!

I love Seawed voice It's so Deep and powerfull

The voice of the penny is so beautiful that I even shiver.

Oh my gosh. I remember that. I was in front row orchestra aisle seat on middle section left. Harvey was right there! I don’t think I breathed all night he was so fantastic. How a non-Singer can upstage the cast in a musical is beyond me, but he did! So much energy and such a great show!

Kerry Butler is so fabulous. Severely underrated singer.

I always loved that Edna dances with Wilbur, I wish they had kept that in the movie’s version of the song.

I remember my first trip to NY, it was the same year the movie came out. My mom got us tickets to see the broadway version as a belated birthday gift. The night before the show, the original movie was on TV. The day after I saw it in cinema. That was the best year of my life.

Omg this cast. Harvey as Edna, Matt Morrison as Link, Laura Bell Bundy as Amber. Omg.

You Can’t Stop The Beat is my favorite song from Hairspray.

Don't get me wrong, I love the movie, but wow this looks like it would be so fun to see live.
