Noreen and Doreen: Now on Broadway

February 23, 2008 · 1 Comment

As any Hairspray fans would know, the 2007 film added ten new council members to the Corny Collins Show. My favorites were the awesome twins named Noreen and Doreen played by Brooke and Tiffany Engen. Those actresses are now swings in two amazing shows on Broadway.

I have to interrupt myself really quick. Sorry! Sketch was not in the council on the original film. He was added for Broadway.

Anyways let me get back to Brooke and Tiffany.

Brooke played Doreen in the film. She’s now a swing in the Broadway production of Hairspray. She also understudies the Female Authority Figure (Prudy, Gym Teacher, and Jail Matron) and she is one of the dance captains. A swing understudies all of the ensemble tracks. (Well all the ensemble tracks of their gender) The job of the dance captains are to teach new cast members all the dances of the show.

Now onto Tiffany. Tiffany played Doreen in the film. Tiffany replaced Cara Cooper as a swing in Legally Blonde just last week. Tiffany has been very busy, as the flu and injuries are going through the cast.

So that’s pretty much all I would like to say right now.

Thanks for reading!
