Legally Blonde Tickets are About to be Sold Out

The latest buzz is about the magical spell cast by Elle Woods, in the new musical version named “Legally Blonde.” This show has hit the stage in April 2007 and the audience is crazy about Elle’s striking performance. After a couple of smashing hits, the character Elle is all set to become one of the most favorite blondes of America!

Elle Blonde is the president of UCLA sorority and an experienced fashionista. She proves herself to be a brainy blonde, by enrolling for Harvard Law School to teach her ex-boyfriend a lesson. Her boyfriend ditches her for a scantily clad, snobbish brunette classmate and this makes her turn towards the law school.

At the Law School, Elle enters with Bruiser, her Chihuahua and a summer’s preparation. She is like a spark among a bunch of dull fellow students and a haughty professor. The only student that befriends her is Emmett, who comes from a humble background. Warner and Paulette, who has an almost non-existent love-life, are also the ones who are impressed with the blonde’s style and charisma.

It’s quite interesting to watch this blonde, dumped by her boyfriend, turn into a super sleuth. She saves a lady who is wrongly blamed for murder! Besides, in the beginning of the story, one could never realize that the girls from Delta Nu would convert into a Greek chorus and support Elle.

“Legally blonde” surely has some twists and turns in the story that keep you glued to the seat till the end. In addition to the story, the music of the show is equally mesmerizing. It’s been written and composed by Laurence O’Keefe and Nell Benjamin, the prominent husband-wife team on Broadway. The book is written by Heather Hach, who had co-written the famous “Freaky Friday”.

The success of “Legally Blonde” is all the more important for Jerry Mitchell, who has taken the first step in the field of direction through this show. Till now, his talents were limited to choreography that helped him achieve the Tony Award. His famous works include “La Cage aux Folles”, “Hairspray”, “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels”, and “The Full Monty”.

The beloved blonde is played by Laura Bell Bundy. Christian Borle plays Emmett. Orfeh can be seen as Paulette in this show. Richard H. Blake plays the role of Warner. Nikki Snelson and Kate Shindle are Brooke and Vivienne, respectively. The egoistical professor Callahan is been played by Michael Rupert. David Rockwell and Gregg Barnes are the set designer and costume designer, respectively.

“Legally Blonde” displays some excellent acting skills by all the characters. The music leaves you with a soothing feel. There is not a single scene, where You Don’t find the sparks of entertainment and thrill catch you. This show is a 100 percent family entertainer and a must-see.

With such striking features, the tickets are, no doubt, going to vanish fast from the box office. The sure shot way of getting tickets for the show is dialing a number or ordering them online.
