Luckily not many instruments playing at that section so it was easier for them to "jump" to cover for Harvey's entrance which was 2 beats out. The drummer obviously heard it and played out a bit bigger and the MD must have then showed a big downbeat at the next possible opportunity and then given obvious cues to the next entry of other players for example the trumpets after "Christmas ham". The conductor in this show has a mic to be able to give verbal cues to the band (on headphones) and he may have also given a measure number that way also just to be sure. Yes these things can happen in live situations and is part of what makes live theatre exciting and actually alive.

And this is why it is better to have a live orchestra or band than accompaniment tracks if one can afford it! Cause with those you basically gotta recover on your own haha.

I never knew they actually feature the black and white dress during the original run (most likely previews as Marissa later wears a pink dress) which makes me no longer question Tracy's dress in the 2007 movie with Nikki. I was so confused as to why she didn't wear a pink dress, but now it makes sense and it makes me love it even more!

LightLeadingMe well clearly she wears it because she's trying to bring together black and white. What's confusing about that? She also straightens her hair which is what they took from the original Hairspray which wasn't in the Broadway.

saw this in Jan.'03 and they shot-off streamers at the end and I still have them (the entire place was electric!)

Whoever thought casting fucking Amanda Bynes in a role that requires you to be able to sing shit like at 5:41 - 6:24 should be bludgeoned with some sort of blunt object... Amanda in that role was fucking embarrassing compared to the Broadway performers who originally performed the role, and she didn't even have to hit those notes while doing a super complex and tiring choreographed dance number at the same time like Kerry did! And this is the same crew that managed to make John Travolta in drag actually work/arguably even more so than Harvey from the OBC, so I honestly see no excuse for them not realizing that Amanda Bynes was completely out of her league and recasting the role...
