I LOVE THE PHOTO! I LOVE THE WIG! (It's so much better than what they used at Encores! It looked too much like her real hair. Besides, she needed a curley wig to match the production artwork...though the artwork is not professional, they need to be consistant.)

You look absolutely terrific, honestly.

I love both the photos posted (VF and Ry!) They're great.

Ooooooh, I love it.

Too bad the scans aren't more clear.

I don't think I've ever seen Laura Benanti more attractive than she is in this picture.

Hot damn!

"Good picture, bad wig. It's not exactly Ravinia, but not exactly City Center"

When you say that, you must take into consideration that might be extcly as the designer wanted it. Momma Rose was not one to spend momey on having her hair done. Every dime went into keeping that act together. So either she did it herself, or one of the girls who said, "OOH, I can style hair" did it. Porobalbly in a hotel room without proper supplirand it was pobably done in a hotel bathroom somewhere.

I hate it when EVERYONE'S hair looks too pefect. No one goes through life like that.

It's a realistic piece, let's not SCULPT everyone's hair.

Rose would never have spent money on having her hair done, either she did it herself, or one of the girls said, "Oh, I know how to do hair!". and then used what ever they had handy and did it in a hotel room. It's perfect for the charachter.


BTW, Thinking of you all in Puerto Vallarta!

Theatre is absolutely right. Thank you for saying that!

And yes, Laura looks absolutely stunning. The best part about Laura is that you never have to photoshop her. She's always that gorgeous. :)

>How often do shows get press in magazines like that?<

Happens all of the time. Vanity Fair, Vogue and Elle regularly focus upon the theatre, either in photographs or in editorial.

Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop.

Should this issue be on stands or is it too early? When I tried to pick up a copy yesterday, the March (Hollywood 200 issue was the one on shelves.
