“Blessed with unstoppable energy and an undeniably bawdy sense of fun, it takes songs you may never have loved and turns them into a musical that's easy to enjoy.”~Los Angeles Times

Aroview: Tom Cruise hams it up something shocking ahead of a star musical cast in this big singing, big strutting hair metal revival set to the music of Def Leppard, Poison, Twisted Sister, and more.

Alternately enjoyable and cringe-inducing, the dir. of HAIRSPRAY flounders with a much more simplistic plot about LA showbiz aspiration that was virtually identical to the recent BURLESQUE. It's airbrushed, broadly comical and with a gooey, bland romance at the centre. You have been warned!
