    The two bars of alto sax in reed must be a misprint. Reed 1 is playing flute at that point so it’s easy for the two players to swap parts

    Reed 2 is a hoot, reminding me why I bought a bari.

    The book has a couple of low As, but they are easily worked around.

    The minor amount of flute music is mostly doubled, and a small production could easily cover all of it with a keyboard. Clarinet is even less important. The last 8 bars of “Timeless” (and the reprise) is a nice little duet with flute on reed 1 and clarinet on reed 2.

    The 2 bars of alto sax in reed 2 are inaudible, and can be played on bari.

  6. The Hairspray tour has one reed book (Flute, Clarinet, Alto Sax, Tenor Sax).

    I am currently the reed player for the 2021 national tour.

    Hope this helps in the future!!
