Alright, this is going to be the third time mentioning Patti.

Patti's wig in the Sweeney Todd revival.

And I soooo agree about Belle in BATB.

Every single Fantine wig up until the late 90's. A notable exception is the one Christy Baron wore when she played the role on Broadway in the early to mid 90's. Other than hers, the 80's and 90's weren't kind to the jilted French maiden's hair.

Most of the Cosette wigs, too, except when they used their own hair (Rena Strober, Regan Thiel, Christeena Michelle Riggs).

I'm not a big fan of the Glinda wig, the one she wears in the opening...too curly.

Jonathan Pryce's Lawrence Jameson wig.

Giving Jeffrey Kuhn stupid looking hats instead of a wig to play Boq in Wicked


"Grease," the fourth revival of the season, is the worst show in the history of theater and represents an unparalleled assault on Western civilization and its values. - Michael Reidel

The Glinda wig tends to change for each actress. Sometimes they are longer. (Kirstin Chenoweth and JLT) But others it can like Stacie Morgain Lewis' wig and it just looks like a cap with curls on it.

Rapunzels wig in the original ITW. The color was far too blonde for the skin tone of the actress.

Cinderella in the original ITW had a pretty god-awful wig when she wore her ball gown. It just didn't fit her head right.

The wigs/facial hair in the London production of Lord of the Rings were pretty god awful. Especially the doorkeeper's in act one before "The Cat and the Moon."

Dreamgirls! The girls wigs are pretty bad. I thought they looked pretty bad from a distance, but a friend of mine works in the hair dept. at the theatre. And when the show came to town I got to go back stage and see them. They looked a hot mess!!!!

In the filmed production of Sweeney Todd with George Hearn and Angela Lansbury, Johanna's wig was disgusting! Then again, she was kind of outrageously bizarre in general.
