Academy Museum of Motion Pictures
John Waters’s work has been celebrated in many ways, especially his film Hairspray (1988), which inspired a Broadway musical in 2002 and the 2007 musical film.
Join us at the Academy Museum for an interactive conversation and dance workshop inspired by the vibrant choreography of Hairspray. We will have a guest choreographer leading inspired dances and conversation about how different styles of dance contribute to storytelling within the themes of civil rights and racism. This workshop will show you how to do the Mashed Potato, the Twist, and many more iconic dance moves!
