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.)

The Vanity Fair photo is pretty much incredible.

And Ry- I love your up close and personal shot w/Patti. Fantastic!

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

Hot damn!

Rob.... I envy you! (and good work)

scaryclowns223.... I agree. I absolutely love the dress.

"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. :)

I shall be purchasing the magazine this weekend

>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.

There is. The full page photo is page 107, the article and Patti photo is page 118, on the bottom third.

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.
