From SNL's Coneheads to Killer Bees, Broadway's Sweeney Todd and Candide, we remember Tony Award-winning costume designer Franne Lee who died on Aug. 27.
Laraine Newman tells NPR in an email,"But Franne gave our show a rugged elegance. She was a true artist.", Lee told Ian Fermaglich, she liked the camaraderie on the show — she was especially fond of working with Newman and Gilda Radner. The material itself was another matter.
"I didn't like a lot of the writing to be honest with you," she laughed,"I thought some of it was good but I thought it was very sophomoric."Throughout her career, Lee collaborated closely with set designer Eugene Lee, who was also her life partner. They both won Tony Awards for their work on the Broadway musicalSweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.
