Line 27:
** And for ''Alice In Wonderland'' in general, the main time when you ''do'' see a dark-haired Alice is when the story's been [[Grimmification|Grimmified]]. (Though this isn't done in ''every'' dark retelling. Just a lot of them.) Perhaps this is because it makes her look more like a goth.
* Revivals of ''The Cradle Will Rock'' often do without costumes, scenery or orchestra; the original production (which was directed by [[Orson Welles]], by the way) did this out of necessity when the actors were locked out of the theatre it was supposed to open in.
* The voice of the [[Man -Eating Plant]] in ''[[Little Shop of Horrors]]'' is usually that of a black singer, though his (real) face is unseen -- or rather, is seen only as that of a Skid Row bum, which he doubles as by precedent.
** Audrey is nearly always blonde, or given a blonde wig.
* Zero Mostel had a huge influence on future portrayals of the characters he played. Most notably Tevye from ''[[Fiddler On the Roof]]''--a dirt poor Russian Jew shouldn't logically be a very fat man.
