You can’t stop the beat of this Tony Award-winning musical sensation!
With a whole mess of teasing and a full can of Aqua Net, the giant dynel bouffant of Edna Turnblad was prepped, preened and passed on to another comic gem of an actor on Wednesday, October 24, when George Wendt, Cheers' beloved barstool squatter Norm, took over the role of Broadway's wackiest mom in Hairspray at the Neil Simon Theatre. We snuck into the matinee that afternoon to check him out in the part and brought back a slew of first performance pics for your pleasure. Welcome to the Sixties, George!
