Hairspray Jr. is the streamlined, 60-minute edition of the beloved Broadway musical Hairspray, designed for student productions. Currently, MTI is refurbishing the materials, and licensing is closed/restricted with a future availability date to be determined. While public re-release details remain forthcoming, theatres continue to stage related Hairspray productions and host auditions, offering fans and families a glimpse into the high-energy world of 1960s Baltimore with its uplifting message and catchy tunes.

People behind the production

Hairspray (the full, non-JR version) originated on Broadway in 2002, earning eight Tony Awards and featuring music by Marc Shaiman with lyrics by Shaiman and Scott Wittman. The original Broadway cast recording won the 2003 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album, underscoring the show’s lasting impact on musical theatre. In 2025, several venues staged the full Hairspray (not JR) in various cities, signaling continued interest in the production, even as the JR edition remains in refurbishment with no public re-release date announced.
