I will admit that I have seen the show 5 times (the fifth being Bailey's opening night) and for three out of the 5 I have been in the Balcony. I saw it once from the rear of the orchestra with a ticket I got from TKTS and the other time I saw it via rush.
The balcony is high up but it isn't that bad in terms of view. Keep in mind that I am not a seat snob at all. I have been going to the theatre for 12 years and the only time I could even think of complaining about where my seat was was when I saw the tour of Wicked while visiting a college last fall at the Bushnell in Hartford. The seats weren't so bad it was just that the way that the theatre was configured. I was sitting in a part of the theatre that was high up and back. So I felt like I was pulled back on the action of the show and that I was watching it from a distance rather then just high up.
But, all in all partial view or not high up or not I don't complain and just sit down and enjoy the show and I don't let anything bother me.
As for the picture and as for weather or not Bailey wears a wig in the show. I am pretty sure she does. As I said earlier in the thread even Bundy has long blonde hair and when she was doing the show she wore a wig throughout the entire performance. So it wouldn't shock me to hear that Baily was wearing a wig for the whole show.
As for the glasses in the picture. As someone said she doesn't wear them for the entire show. That picture was just taken at the party scene where Elle talks about Gloria Steinem.
