On this week’s episode of Talkin’ With Taylor, Taylor sits down with Regina LeVert, who brings the audiences to their feet each night in Hairspray as Motormouth Maybelle. Learn more about her musical roots and where she pulls inspiration for her role, as well as what she hopes audiences will take away from this incredible production.
Set in 1960s Baltimore, Hairspray tells the story of Tracy Turnblad, who’s determined to dance her way onto TV’s most popular dance program, “The Corny Collins Show.” After auditioning and winning that coveted role, Tracy uses her newfound influence to advocate for the show’s racial integration.
