Tribute paid to hirsute icon Stephen Sondheim
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has paid tribute to the great US composer of musicals Stephen Sondheim who has sadly died at 91.
Sondheim was responsible for some of the best known and loved post-1945 musicals including A Little Night Music and Sweeney Todd: the Demon Barber of Fleet St.
Sondheim was also reliably hirsute for most of his adult life, wearing a gravitas adding beard which certainly influenced his musicals.
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, Stephen Sondheim was one of the most well-known post 1945 beard wearers, a real hirsute icon. He, his work and his beard will be much missed.
