What happens when the original Tracy Turnblad, Legally Blonde's Elle Woods, and Xanadu's leading lady grace the stage for a spectacular evening? There’s Winokur’s show-stopping power, Butler’s ethereal perfection, and Bundy’s signature blend of sass and class. But most of all, there are twists, turns, and tears, as the three powerhouse women navigate the ups and downs of life before they eventually come together through a career-defining production of Hairspray. On their parallel journeys of stardom, friendship, and eventually motherhood, they banded together to grow up in the spotlight - without losing their sparkle.
New World Stages has gained a reputation for its edgy, avant-garde pieces right in the heart of the Theatre District.

With a great production value and an intimate setting, the Hell's Kitchen area of Manhattan has been popularised with the venue. From mainstream Off-Broadway musicals to more experimental fare, the venue's five theaters can handle it all.
