NEW YORK (AP) _ January is usually a pretty chilly month on Broadway. But this year, the post-holidays could be a little colder than normal. "Hairspray" and "Monty Python's Spamalot," both long-running, Tony-winning best musicals, are closing up shop."Spamalot" pulls up the moat for good on Jan. 18, after 1,500 performances at the Shubert Theatre.
"Hairspray" will have had an even longer run — more than 2,600 performances — by the time it folds Jan. 4 at the Neil Simon Theatre. But the show, based on John Waters' cult movie classic, is going out with its original star, Harvey Fierstein.
