For those of you who aren't familiar with the story of <em>Hairspray</em>, here's a little bit of background information.<br /><br />Both the broadway musical and the 2007 movie are based on the 1988 movie directed by John Waters. "The songs include 1960s-style dance music and "downtown" rythym and blues. In 1962 Baltimore, Maryland, plump teenager Tracy Turnblad's dream is to dance on The Corny Collins Show, a local TV dance program based on the real-life Budde Dean Show. When Tracy wins a role on the show, she becomes a celebrity overnight. She then launches a campaign to integrate the show. Hairspray is a social commentary on the injustices of parts of American society in the 1960s." (Wikipedia)<br /><br />The production of <em>Hairspray</em> on Broadway opened August 15, 2002. Out of 13 Tony Award nominations, the musical won eight. After over 2,500 performaces, the show finally closed on January 9th, 2009. After closing, the show went on several international tours.<br /><br />The movie was released on July 20th, 2007 and brought about a new generation of <em>Hairspray</em> fans. It opened with great success and broke the record for biggest sales at opening weekend for a movie musical. The movie had a star-studded cast of extremely talented actors and actresses, including: Nikki Blonksy (Tracy Turnblad), John Travolta (Edna Turnblad), Michelle Pfeiffer (Velma Von Tussle), Christopher Walken (Wilbur Turnblad), Amanda Bynes (Penny Pingleton), James Marsden (Corny Collins), Queen Latifah (Motormouth Maybelle), Brittany Snow (Amber Von Tussle), and Zac Efron (Link Larkin).<br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>Things you didn't know about making the movie! </strong><br /><br />-It took John Travolta 4 hours to put on the 30-pound fat suit and 5 gel-filled silicone face prosthetics to become Edna Turnblad.<br /><br />-Amanda Bynes' pigtails took two hours in hair and make-up every morning.<br /><br />-Nikki Blonsky told Oprah Winfrey on the first day she entered the studio, John Travolta said to her, "come to mama".<br /><br />-Penny Pingleton's dress in the "You Can't Stop the Beat" song was made from curtains in her bedroom.<br /><br />-Meryl Streep and Madonna were both considered for the role of Velma Von Tussle.<br /><br />-Aretha Franklin auditioned for the role of Motormouth Maybelle, but lost out to Queen Latifah.<br /><br />-Adam Shankman made Zac Efron make out with the picture frame in the "Without Love" sequence for over an hour.<br /><br /><br />Hope to see all of you at the upcoming show!

Casey Nicholaw won the TONY for Best Director for the hit musical <i><span style="font-style: italic; "><a href="http://bookofmormonbroadway.com/google.html">Book of Mormon</a></span></i> – and he even gave our Casey quite the shout out from stage. He thanked her (using her full name) during his acceptance speech! She also got to walk the red carpet, and made it on camera several times when they would pan to the seats.

We had over 100 participants packed into a multi-purpose room at Marbles. The participants learned the great R&B ballad "River Deep, Mountain High" and then learned a dance to it! Pianist and vocal coach Julie Bradley, and Director/Choreographer Tito Hernandez, accompanied by two of the North Carolina Theatre Conservatory's biggest student talents, taught two workshops to masses of people...it was a blast to watch and hear! And I think we have some undiscovered talent in Raleigh! (Moms and Dads out there...we saw you!)<br /><br />The next workshop was held in May and featured a performance from the hottest stars of the North Carolina Theatre Conservatory doing a medley from the musical <span style="font-style: italic;">Hello, Dolly!</span> Everything from "Put On Your Sunday Clothes" to "Elegance" was performed in song and dance. Then the families learned the song "Before the Parade Passes By." We made Sunday hats, paraded through the building, and sang beautifully - another First Friday success with Marbles.<br /><br />Stay tuned for our third First Friday event at Marbles! You are invited to attend a <span style="font-style: italic;">Hairspray Dance Party</span>, Friday July 1st from 6:30 to 7:30 PM at Marbles Kids Museum located in downtown Raleigh! Visit www.marbleskidsmuseum.org for complete details.<br /><br />We hope to see you there and thank you to those who made the first two workshops a huge success!<br /><br />~Heather Patterson King<br />Director of Outreach; Acting Department Head<br />North Carolina Theatre ConservatoryKristinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06721414788816969178noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003566756430337900.post-20163890841764543112011-06-10T11:18:00.006-04:002011-06-10T13:53:25.767-04:00TONY TimeAre you watching the <a href="http://www.tonyawards.com/en_US/index.html">TONYs</a> on Sunday?

As you know, Cybill was originally scheduled to star in our recent production of <span style="font-style: italic;">Hello, Dolly!</span> but could not perform in the title role due to an injury. Before she left Raleigh she attended the party to meet and greet with donors and sing a few songs.

Opening weekend audiences showed their adulation for the new 'Dolly Gallagher Levi' and our outstanding cast with resounding ovations after each performance.</div><div><br /></div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div> </div><div>Feedback has also been overwhelmingly positive for our 2012 season that is a collaborative effort with Broadway Series South. In case you haven't heard, the line-up includes three tours: <em>A Christmas Story, The Musical, </em>Green Day's <em>American Idiot </em>and <em>Les Miserables</em>; one play produced by North Carolina Theatre: <em>Steel Magnolias</em>, and two musicals produced by North Carolina Theatre: <em>Oliver! </em>and <em>Legally Blonde The Musical!</em> We are excited to leverage our relationships and resources with Broadway Series South and Hot Summer Nights at the Kennedy as we build on our mission-driven tradition of bringing world-class entertainment downtown to the Progress Energy Center for the Performing Arts!</div><div> </div><div>Check out some photos taken by production photographer, Curtis Brown, during last week's dress rehearsal.<img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 267px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5604812260690580066" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje4IwshNN40z2gx5Mpjsbp-lp2cRkklVDysCyn_8BGjW79Nu9mkSyDXJaF1WkPH8C07WBtg1y8n_alU-jWUTbZ0yxMn4SQAn7kPRRCZxU26PjDFsh-p-eQ4eVM9pznq2H3tGe7S3E35hcY/s400/IMG_3380+%25282%2529.jpg" /></div><div><div style="text-align: center;">Stephen Godwin as Horace Vandergelder and cast of <i>Hello, Dolly!
