Probably the most likely place to find wigs used to be in the theatre but more recently they have tried to use actors own hair as much as possible. However wigs are still a must have in certain stage shows.
Rock of Ages
As rock of ages is set in the rock 'n' roll of the 80's wigs were needed, the long hair for the guys and extra volume for the women making the show seem more authentic. You can catch this in the Garrick theatre, London.
Phantom of the Opera
Originally a book and then a stage show written by Andrew Lloyd Webber set in 1881 in the Georgian era when the well dressed men had long hair usually brushed and tied back and the women had long bouncy ringlets. You can catch this at Her Majesty's theatre, London.
