Whoever decided to make this story a musical was a genius.

[@benschaeffer8102]

It started as a Broadway musical based on the original John Waters film version.

[@angelarobertson2668]

@@benschaeffer8102following your comment to add yes after the original in 1988 he decided to make it a musical and it’s one of my favorite ❤

[@ryanstauffer119]

Theater producer Margo Lion conceived to of Hairspray as a stage musical in 1998 after seeing the 1988 movie on television. She contacted the 1988 movie's creator John Waters who gave her his blessing. I'm glad that Waters likes the musical. He says he likes how high schools all across the country play his characters. As interesting as the 1988 film is, it seems to work better as a musical. It just helps make the story flow better. The 1988 movie did have plenty of dancing, but singing while dancing makes it even better. The songs gave these characters more life. More lovability. Truly one of the best musicals ever made. While people grew up on Grease, this is my kind of musical.

I just thought of this song at midnight as I turn 60 today. A different meaning to “welcome to the 60’s”.

[@indigotears]

This number always makes me tear up with joy and a bittersweet feeling "Your mama's looking at herself and wondering where you been?" she spent so long trapped by her insecurities and she finally found the confidence to be free that night

I love how Edna walked down the stairs did a cute lil spin and was like "ok thats enough, going back in the house now" 😂😂😂 Tracy was like nope. Bring your butt out here now lol

[@tsukasa1608]

Man I wish the new Mean Girls musical movie has this kind of energy...

[@user-of4yv7ji1b]

exactly! Idk why they must turn every musical into pop and take away from the original Broadway quality. The mean girls movie musical could have been incredible

[@abc.animal5143]

Mean Girls was too afraid to be a musical.

[@bantubrat343]

I love this song, my six year old had a huge hairspray phase and this song definitely resonated with me. I love seeing the liberation in the characters and the jubilation they showed on screen occasionally brings me to tears.

[@JAKECOT_CENTER]

RIP Jerry Stiller. I hope Frank Costanza/Mr Pinky lives on

[@kaitlinowens2714]

I love this movie. Absolutely feel bad for Edna because the poor lady has such low self esteem due to being a big woman and not fitting into the beauty standards of her time so I love the part where pinky compliments her about being Tracy’s sister. Also Tracy is a sweetheart helping her mom with her confidence especially considering it’s normally the mom helping her daughter with her confidence so it’s nice seeing it the other way around. This is definitely my favorite song.

[@disneyremixes]

2024 and still sounding great! Shame they don’t produce songs like this anymore. Such a decorative, inspiring, clever and uplifting arrangement. Let’s not forget the talents of composer Marc Shaiman, all the wonderful live musicians and soundtrack mixer Frank Wolf.

i feel like what made this movie was actual decent and outstanding singing chops on part of the performers, i remember wanting to watch the mamma mia movie because i like abba, but my god they sung horribly.

[@mousepariah3884]

Absolutely. The problem with too many movie musicals Is they cast big names without making sure they can actually sing. Or they hamper the singers somehow like Hugh Jackman in Les Mis sounding like he had cotton in his cheeks the whole movie (Greatest showman proves the man has pipes
