It is noted in the display ad and the listing. Anyone else got one of these?  |  IP: Logged Bill Gabel Film God Posts: 3873 From: Technicolor / Postworks NY, USA Registered: Jan 2002 posted 08-04-2007 10:43 AM                     The ArcLight in Hollywood is also running the Sing-A-Long version too.  |  IP: Logged Shane Cooper Expert Film Handler Posts: 232 From: Little Rock, Arkansas Registered: Jun 2004 posted 08-04-2007 01:02 PM                     we do not have an advertised showtime, but we had a few patrons that made their own!  |  IP: Logged Paul Konen Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 981 From: Frisco, TX.

Does the public know these songs well enough for there to be any kind of market for this? I mean, we did THE SOUND OF MUSIC and ROCKY HORROR, but HAIRSPRAY?  |  IP: Logged Paul Linfesty Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1383 From: Bakersfield, CA, USA Registered: Nov 1999 posted 08-05-2007 02:33 AM                     Well, the young son of Ugly Betty's sister on the TV show knew the songs well enough to perform the entire score on a subway train that had broken down on their way to see the play.  |  IP: Logged Ky Boyd Hey I'm #23 Posts: 314 From: Santa Rosa, CA, USA Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-05-2007 02:40 AM                       Good point Paul! The Broadway musical has toured throughout the US and the show continues to be a strong draw on the great white way.  |  IP: Logged Paul Konen Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 981 From: Frisco, TX.

Not even changing colors like a Karoke machine or follow the bouncing ball.  |  IP: Logged Ron Keillor Expert Film Handler Posts: 166 From: Vancouver, B.C.
