Legally Blonde - The Musical
 

Based on the beloved hit film Legally Blonde, this fabulously fun award-winning musical follows the journey of Elle Woods as she tackles stereotypes, defies expectations, and proves that being true to yourself never goes out of style! Elle Woods appears to have it all, however her glossy life is turned upside down when her boyfriend Warner dumps her so he can find a more suitable partner while he attends Harvard Law. Determined to get him back, Elle ingeniously charms her way into the prestigious law school. While there, she struggles with peers, professors and her ex. With the support of some new friends, Elle quickly realises her own potential and sets out to prove herself to the world.

This timeless show saw its original Broadway production earn seven Tony Award nominations, including Best Original Score. The West End production won three Laurence Olivier Awards in 2011, including Best New Musical. Additionally, an Australian production of the musical won five Helpmann Awards in 2013.

    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.

    Izzard: The Tragedy of Hamlet
    To Shakespeare’s text be true is the obvious goal here, and writer, director and actor have each scored.

    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.

    Even when individual works did not fully land for me dramaturgically, there is no denying the precision, intelligence and care of the artists creating them.

    Unabashedly and unapologetically entertaining, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels delights in its hoax hokum, a whimsical hustle of musical comedy bustle.
