Hairspray

Last week I went to see Hairspray, which was amusing and well done, although not my favorite type of musical. I do wish they had found a better dancer to play Tracy, since the entire plot hinges on her dancing ability. She just seemed lacking in energy, especially compared to the actors playing Link and Seaweed, both of whom were excellent. Of course, the guy playing Link also looked like he was about eighteen years old, so it was probably less of an effort for him.
