Watch a New Promo for NBC’s Hairspray Live!

A brand new preview for NBC’s Hairspray Live has been released. The promo features new footage of the cast rehearsing for the upcoming live musical.

“Hairspray Live! takes place in 1962 Baltimore. Plump teenager Tracy Turnblad’s dream is to dance on “The Corny Collins Show,” a local TV program. When against all odds Tracy wins a role on the show, she becomes a celebrity overnight and meets a colorful array of characters, including the resident dreamboat, Link; the ambitious mean girl, Amber; an African-American boy she meets in detention, Seaweed; and his mother, Motormouth Maybelle, the owner of a local record store. Tracy’s mother is the indomitable Edna, and she eventually encourages Tracy on her campaign to integrate the all-white ‘Corny Collins Show.”

The show will go live on NBC on Wednesday, December 7.
