It's an absolute hoot -- funny dialogue, great songs that sound like they were written in the 1960s, and fun sets, costumes and wigs -- lots and lots of big wigs.

Rent the hysterical non-musical John Waters film, then imagine it with songs. Or better yet, get the cast recording of the musical -- the songs are relentless fun. Or just get tickets to the tour that's coming your way.

The John Waters' movie was an original piece of work, especially for its time. I've seen 2 touring productions of the musical, and unless you have someone like a Harvey Fierstein (or Divine in the movie) in the Mrs Turnblad role, it's just okay. It does have a great message, but I think you young people have already gotten 'the message'.
