Legally Blonde

~~This show was very well directed by Amanda, using all the theatre facilities available and a talented cast to provide great entertainment. Christopher controlled and interpreted the musical side well at all times, no mean feat with a lot of complex musical moments to perfect on stage and in the pit. Rosie Wade was excellent as Elle, vocally and dramatically. Hardly ever off stage except for many quick changes, she was on top of the role throughout. Mark Coffey Bainbridge was well cast as Emmett developing the character well, a perfect foil for Elle. There were also very good performances from Rob Holsman (Warner), Sarah Kelly (Vivienne) and Graham Ward (Callahan) with fine character portrayals from all. Helen Eadsforth made a striking principle debut as Paulette, her “Ireland” number was great. All the remainder of the cast provided full support at all times and certainly helped in the success of the show. The choreography was in the very capable hands of Rachael and she did not disappoint. It was also performed well, especially the “Whipped into shape” number, a must for Weightwatchers!  The set was very good and used well, with the many scene changes managed very efficiently. Costumes props and lighting all added to the overall visual effect, and the dogs behaved very well indeed! This was a great musical and very well prepared, congratulations to the cast and production team.
