Hairspray, The Musical

August 20, 2012

My daughter, her friend, and I had so much fun last weekend going to see the musical Hairspray at one of the gems of Kansas City, The New Theatre. The food was amazing, and the performance exceptional. Local actor Jim Korinke and the wonderful Lena Mary Amato were the stars, and they were joined by a high energy cast of marvels. You must make time to go to this wonderful venue and check out the plays and food they have to offer.

At MCPL you can check out the DVD of Hairspray, either from back in the day when Divine, Sonny Bono, and Jerry Stiller were in it, or get the remake with John Travolta, Queen Latifah, and Christopher Walken. I have to say, both were great. The storyline uses the power of pop music to break down racial barriers in the early 1960s.

It is so much fun to be able to get on our Online Catalog and order these great movies any time we want. Go MCPL!
