Tracy is nameless in the performing arts sphere when she tries out, despite this she is elected for a role & against enormously long odds she becomes a dancing star practically overnight. Tracy is ecstatic by this brand new fame, and she opts to make use of her new fame to bring about positive developments to the show. The basic grounds for these positive changes is related to race. Tracy desires to racially join together the TV program, & as anybody may perhaps imagine, she is confronted with a great amount of opposition.
Hairspray arrived at the West End in two-thousand and seven, opening for the media at the Shaftesbury Theatre on October the eleventh, before being revealed to the paying public at its official opening on October 30, two-thousand and seven. The musical has had some renowned actors — Michael Ball plays the character of Edna Turnblad, Tracy’s very own mother, providing a fantastic interpretation in this testing female role, whilst Mel Smith played joke shop manager Wilbur Turnblad, Tracy’s father. The original cast in the West End also includes newcomer to the stage, Leanne Jones, in the main part of Tracy.

Jacqueline stated: “I have been to the play four times now and I will surely be going back again sometime next week and a few more times after that as well. I love the show & wish they could stay on a great deal longer. Ben Ellis is marvellous as link & Leanne Jones as Tracey and Michael Ball, well they are all very good. The show hairspray is indeed my favourite, merely because its positive & if you are feeling down then it is certain to make you feel a whole lot happier. I definitely give it a 10 out of ten – I love it well done to everyone involved with it.
