...plus-size empowerment. "You have to find a theme that contemporary audiences relate to," says Neil Meron, producer of Hairspray and the 2002 film Chicago. "Hairspray is about body image, racial tolerance, what constitutes a family." Think Oprah's Live Your Best Life tour, with a beat and bigger hair...
