Amazon.com Like Wicked, this show is a girl-friendly extravaganza; the main difference--and it's a big one--is that the score of Legally Blonde is better. Based on the hit Reese Witherspoon movie, the zippy, frothy show tells the story of SoCal, pink-loving sorority girl Elle Woods, who enrolls at Harvard Law and goes on to prove that appearances can be deceiving. The opening number, "Omigod You Guys," gives an idea of what the Broadway-pop score by Laurence O'Keefe (Bat Boy--The Musical) and Nell Benjamin is up to, embracing its over-the-top cheer with goofily infectious energy. Sure, a couple of numbers feel a bit derivative (the show with the witches has "Popular," this one has "Positive"), and the Celtic detour ("Ireland") is rather puzzling, but overall the songs are firing on all cylinders. Just check out the use of a marching band on "What You Want" for instance. Laura Bell Bundy (Amber von Tussle in Hairspray) is a charming Elle, and she delivers numbers such as "So Much Better" with the requisite elan. But this is not a one-woman show, and Bundy is surrounded by a crack team, including the endearing Christian Borle as Elle's love interest Emmett, power-piped Orfeh as hairdresser Paulette and up-and-comer Leslie Kritzer as Delta Nu's Serena. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Musical Fan Now November 12, 2008 My daughter who is 9 and I drove 2 hours to see this in Cleveland last night. As much as I dreaded the drive and lack of sleep, it was so worth it. I do not always enjoy musicals, but this one was so fun that I want to see it again tonight. We had the privelage of going to the Cast Party and they were all so friendly and talked to my daughter like she was the only one in the room. Thanks for the great show. Lorie and Annie, Columbus, Oh.
Awesome Soundtrack!! September 30, 2008 This is a great soundtrack. All the songs are so funny and cute. I love the show and love the soundtrack just as much. It's Great.
Positively Awsome September 11, 2008 This is my favorite CD to pop in and do work to!! Any girl that just likes to have fun and be girly will love it!! Even my husband cracks up when i make him listen to it!!
High-Spirited and Fun August 29, 2008 While not destined to go down as one of Broadway's all-time great scores, "Legally Blonde" is enjoyable to listen to, and this recording nicely captures the spirit and energy of the show. For fans of the MTV "Search for Elle Woods" program, you might want to download contest winner Bailey Hanks' recording of "So Much Better" to go along with Laura Bell Bundy's original performance of that excellent song.
