With our Finel chance to perform our peace we developed our parts as the character. I played as Corny the tv host for 'The Corny Collin show'. I developed  the tone of my voice so I can project out more to the audience and it also brings out my inner character. We all did a dance peace and it went very well but some of us had to improve on our movement and structure, some people needed to put more happiness into it. Also within the dance I needed to develop the sync in the dance and get the start with the correct arm. At the end of our final rehursel I realised that the tone and structure had improved and my character became more realistic and I enjoyed the performence.

Historical Context of Hairspray

The main issue of Hairspray is racial segregation.  As the Civil Rights Movement was very much alive in the 1960’s, Hairspray takes place in Baltimore, 1962, among all of the racism.  The movie Hairspray was written in the ’80s, another time of prevalent racism, and the Broadway musical began in the late ’90s and premiering in 2002–both times of still prevalent racism.

Adapted from both Waters' 1988 script and Thomas Meehan and Mark O'Donnell's book for the stage musical by screenwriter Leslie Dixon, the 2007 film version of Hairspray was directed and choreographed by Adam Shankman and has an ensemble cast including John Travolta, Michelle Pfeiffer, Christopher Walken, Amanda Bynes, James Marsden, Queen Latifah, Brittany Snow, Zac Efron, Elijah Kelley, Allison Janney and Nikki Blonsky in her feature film debut. Set in 1962 Baltimore, Maryland, the film follows the "pleasantly plump" teenager Tracy Turnblad as she pursues stardom as a dancer on a local TV show and rallies against racial segregation.

TRACY
You can't stop an avalanche
As it races down the hill
You can try to stop the seasons, girl
But ya know you never will
And you can try to stop my dancin' feet

But I just cannot stand still
Cause the world keeps spinnin'
Round and round
And my heart's keeping time
To the speed of sound
I was lost til' I heard the drums
Then I found my way

TRACY & LINK
Cause you can't stop the beat

Ever since this old world began
A woman found out if she shook it
She could shake up a man
And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it
The best that I can today

'Cause you cant stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the sun in the sky
You can wonder if you wanna
But I never ask why

And if you try to hold me down
I'm gonna spit in your eye and say
That you cant stop the beat!

PENNY
You can't stop a river
As it rushes to the sea

SEAWEED
You can try and stop the hands of time
But ya know it just can't be

Then I found my way

PENNY & SEAWEED

PENNY & SEAWEED
Ever since we first saw the light
A man and woman liked to shake it
On a Saturday night
And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it
With all my might today

'Cause you cant stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the rain from above
You can try to stop the paradise
We're dreamin' of
But you cannot stop the rhythm
Of two hearts in love to stay
Cause you cant stop the beat!

EDNA
You cant stop my happiness
Cause I like the way i am
And you just can't stop my knife and fork
When I see a Christmas ham
so if you don't like the way i look
Well, I just don't give a damn!

EDNA & ENSEMBLE
Cause the world keeps spinning
Round and 'round

The motion of the ocean
Or the sun in the sky
You can wonder if you wanna
But I never ask why
And if you try to hold me down
I'm gonna spit in your eye and say
That you cant stop the beat!
