    In this episode Sarah Cawood will be joined by legendary wig designer Angela Cobbin.

    For over 5 decades Angela has worked with some of the biggest names in theatre all over the world including Dame Joan Collins, Dame Maggie Smith, Ian McKellen, Michael Gambon and Dame Joan Plowright. Not just that, she’s also worked on some of the biggest theatre productions including including Les Misérables, Phantom of the Opera and Jesus Christ Superstar.

    Angela sheds some light on what it’s like to work with acting royalty, what happens when actors don’t listen to instructions about their wigs and what happened when she missed a quick change with Dame Maggie Smith.

    We know what you’re thinking, Angela could write a book on her career and do you know what? She’s just released her memoir, My Name Is Not Wigs! (Or the day I thought Pavarotti was a stagehand).

    This is a not-to-miss episode filled with lots off laughs, behind-the-scenes stories and more. What are you waiting for? Get a drink, make yourself comfortable and get ready to hear about all the behind scenes of the world of wigging!

    Hope you enjoy this really fun and wonderful episode!
