JP Goes To The Final Performance of HAIRSPRAY!

[scotcheggs]

next time.. try focus the camera.. would also be better if you invest in an hd cam.

[Hairsprayxoxoful]

Did you go to the stage door to see the cast? I'm going to see Catch Me If YOu Can at the Neil Simon, and would like to know where the stage door is so I can get the cast autographs.

[sdixon2010]

I have totally worked with Kate Loprest before....love her!!!!

[hairspraydude1]

Paul Huntley, the wig designer, was RIGHT behind you when you were talking about meeting Laura, Kerry, and Adam. Haha.

[SpinneyBigBird1095]

I love how during the finale and the curtain call when everyone is singing you can still hear niki's low and beautiful voice over everyone! she is the best and this show is the best and i want it to come back! i was there that night!

[iknewthtduhh45]

@SpinneyBigBird1095 niki is my cousin :)

[frymahhide1982]

OMG, that's DANIELLE ARCI, who plays Tracy Turnblad on the national tour now behind Constantine at 6:02.

[elijahrocks101]

OMG I Wish I Went To See that last show by the end of the night i would be CRYING!!

I Miss HAIRSPRAY!!!

=(

[ValdezVideos]

do you know if shannon during was in the audience?

[jpsketch03]

She sure was!

[TheQueenofBroadway]

I never had interest in seeing Hairspray until it closed and now I wish I had and I missed the tour too! I'm really sad about it.

[shiquan21]

wow its corban blew or blow whichever

[missrindasue123]

this was my first musical. i went with my dance studio. it was amazinggg. before we watched it we got to learn a dance from the musical from dwayne cooper. omg. it was amazinggg.

[SistahEve]

Is that Martin Mull behind your right shoulder, 2 minutes into it?

[imetcarmencusack]

no offense to you if u are a fan of SJP, (i mean she's great, I really do like her a lot) but I find it annoying when Celebrities go to Broadway shows, because they always have to be the Center of attention. It's really annoying, because they have nothing to do with the show, yet, the headlines are something like "Miley Cyrus goes to see Wicked!" It's like who cares? She is just another person who saw the show... Great big deal... Anyway- love hairspray- ur videos are amazing!!!!

[aclnyc2008]

Awesomeness

[diggoryjoshua]

Wow this is like the best fan video EVER

Thank you for posting and sharing with us. Closing Night! WOW

I'm soooo jealous... (in a good way though)

Again, thank you for posting.

Marissa looks gorgeous (like always) and she was sooo nice...

Keep on posting videos as good as this one! ;)

[Megfly]

I am SO jealous of you right now, OMG. This looks like the most amazing experience ever! Thank you for sharing.

[mpreston123]

JP, I really enjoyed this! Great job! "Hairspray" has so much energy and so full of life. Thank you so much for posting and sharing with us! I wish the entire cast,especially Tevin Campbell the best of luck in all of their future endeavors.

[keegandon]

you are so lucky

[kateaustin32]

[duckerdog22]

[Verna2008]

Thanks for sharing, JP!

[j3ss1grl]

YAY SHOSHANA, Adam, SJP, LBB, etc etc btw. SO jealous. thanks for sharing your experience!

[musicismydna]

when i clicked on this i could have sworn it said JB..as in Jonas Brothers..

well then!

[jpsketch03]

Haha!

Sorry to disappoint!

[bwaybaby0901]

I haven't seen anyone but Tevin either...and I've been going for about 2 years as well. 13 times..and he's never been out!

[TahoeLeah]

Another great closing night video JP! Excellent! So glad to see your video of the curtain call, cause I think Ryan was having Zev film his footage...geez...his made me dizzy!

Thanks for taking us with you :)

[ChucksCherubs]

Wow JP, I feel the chemistry between you and Marc Shaiman. ;)

If Ryan would have you on his show as an actual guest (as opposed to a cameraman) maybe Marissa would've known your name!

Thanks for sharing your experience. I wish I could've been there but this was the next best thing!

=)

[LEGALLYbroadway]

Omigod, JP, I hate you. WHY DO YOU GET SO LUCKY??

I am kidding.... I am just jealous!

Harvey's speech made me CRY... a little....

I know you are friends with Ryan O'Connor, but I don't like any of his videos.... I am a fan of Seth! I love him, and u got great vids too. Ryan.... annoys me. "Hello everyone, hello" that opening line makes me want to die.

GO SETH R.!

No offense, nothing personally!

[celebritygirljess]

i love laura bell!! Marissa looks soo sad when she was dancing. sob sob they r so nice to let ppl take out their cameras. i wish i could have done that. well this is helping. and im sad.

[eddielizb]

hahaha omg i feel so proud to hav been there and u know i got so lucky cuz laura bell bundy and kerry butler were sitting on my very row 2 seats away!!! omg and i took pics with both of them damn!!!

[david2v]

You are so lucky I wish I could've seen it. I'll miss you Hairspray.

[jacobsnchz]

[Jostynnn]

To be honest, I thought this was going to be really obnoxious.

But this makes me want to watch more JPTV. ;]

[sydney722]

[ABdancin12]

[pistonwriston]

Marissa is probably the sweetest broadway star out there... she was so incredibly humble and cute when i met i her!

[skb2010]

I love harveys hat

[skb2010]

and.... RYAN O'CONNOR! I love that guy.

[ttsmfbr]

Ridiculous question, but what Camera do you have that everyones complimenting?

[jpsketch03]

a flip mino

[benjywho]

So, needless to say, I'm jealous.

[secondeagle]

Her hair IS epic, jeezums. Glad you got to see the final night, and hopefully there are a few more such special occasions in your lifetime. I know I've had a few, and I never EVER get over the thrill of opening or tears of closing. Keep going!

[Jamiekennywicked]

why the hell did it close

*idea* broadway revival!

[tiggosaurus]

Thanks for sharing JP!

It's great that you filmed during intermission, it captured a taste of the atmosphere which looked amazing, esp with all the creative team and former cast members milling around.

Loved the stage door footage too. Marissa J-W's hair was awesome, could have been a character in its own right!

What a bittersweet day it must have been, but at least you have some immense memories to take away. Thanks again for sharing.
