'Hair' to the 'Spray'


Rider University grad, Amy Toporek, who was a member of the tribe in my production of 'Hair' (Rider) is starring as Tracy Turnblad in 'Hairspray' at the Walnut Street Theatre. I couldn't be more thrilled for her. She's got quite the vocals.

I loved both versions of the movie, so I'm really looking forward to seeing the musical; even better with her as the lead.

You can't stop the beat!

November 4 – January 4
Book by Mark O'Donnell and Thomas Meehan
Music by Marc Shaiman
Lyrics by Scott Wittman and Marc Shaiman
Based upon the New Line Cinema film written and directed by John Waters

Set in 1929-1930 Berlin on the eve of the Nazis’ rise to power, this stunning musical is considered one of America’s musical theater classics. Berlin’s seedy Kit Kat Klub becomes a metaphor for the decadent state of Berlin society wherein the lives of various troubled characters are explored.
