New York Car Rentals and Hairspray on Broadway

Hairspray is a musical based on the 1988 movie of the same name. They story is about a girl named Tracy in the early 1960s. Her dream is to dance on the Corny Collins Show, which is a local TV dance program.

The stage adaptation of the movie was first performed in Seattle before coming to New York in 2002. Today it is playing at the Neil Simon Theater, which you can see while you are in town with your New York car rental. The show has won a Tony.

The pinnacle of American Theater

With so many theaters in such a small space, you are sure to find many different plays to satisfy your tastes. Many appeal to popular culture, with hits such as Chicago, les Miserables, The Color Purple, Wicked, Inherit the Wind, The Lion King, Rent, The Phantom of the Opera, Mary Poppins, Spamalot, The Producers, and Mamma Mia! playing at this time. Broadway is a New York experience you will not want to miss with your car rental.

Located near Times Square, there is a lot to keep you busy in the area before and after you catch Hairspray. With shopping, dining, and even just people-watching you will not be disappointed with your visit. You might even feel up to catching a riskier play Off-Broadway before it makes it big.
