Synopsis: Set in Baltimore during the 1960s dance TV craze, a zaftig high school hairhopper goes from outsider to celebrity trendsetter. Along the way she stars on "The Corny Collins Show," wins the heart of the resident hunk and kicks down the barriers for black and white integration on local television.

Comment: Based on the Broadway Musical, by Mark O'Donnell and Thomas Meehan, which was based on the 1988 film by John Waters. Start date was pushed from fall '05 to spring '06 after the co-directors of the stage play left the project.

SBD Review: 3.5 stars
