Based on the John Waters film, Hairspray is the winner of the 2003 Tony Award for Best Musical, the 2003 Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Musical, the 2003 Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding Broadway Musical, and the 2003 Drama League Award for Distinguished Production of a Musical!

Review: George Wendt by ultraclutch

George Wendt is the best Edna by far! He is so funny! And I never knew he could sing like that! Keep it up, George!

Review: Very funny by hockeygurlie0308

I saw it when John Pinette was playing Edna Turnblad and he had both the cast and audience cracking up.
