Mr. Fierstein must be a lucky guy to play Edna again. His work on the Wiz Live last year deeply surprised me especially with how he expanded Dorothy's emotional journey to find her way home. I have to agree Hairspray is coming at an important time in the wake of the election and change is in the air once again. Good luck in advanced to Harvey on writing the script for Bye Bye Birdie LIVE next year.
