I went to see Legally Blonde with two friends of mine both of whom are not musical fans. We got student rush and were seats 102, 104 and 106 which were fantastic. Being front row is amazing, a bit close up obviously but still nice.
The show itself is still the show I love, the same wonderfully catchy music and the energetic performances I have grown to love. LBB was SO ON tonight, she sang and acted her little butt off like it was going out of style and I loved it, and I SWEAR, I do believe she hit THE NOTE, I was so proud of her. Her and Christian still are adorable and make me smile. Kate, Richard, Micheal were fantastic as usual. Orfeh and Andy were amazing as usual. Cara was on as Serena, which made me extremely happy, she was the only U/S on. I missed seeing Noah in the company and Bryce looks ALOT like Owen Wilson, so I can only imagine what it must have been like to see him as Emmett.
During the Dewey scene, Rufus kind of sneezed/spit on LBB and it was pretty funny. I was having a ball, when I go to Blonde, I just am in for the party. A few annoying auidence members behind me: A boy who kept telling his friend during intermission to guess where he was to which he'd responded: "The Palace Theater, New York, New York, Broadway. Watching Legally Blonde The Musical." Also these girls next to me were starring at me just enjoying the show.
My friends enjoyed it and bought t-shirts. The stage door was kind of dead due to the BRISK cold and wind: However: Micheal, Asmeret, Cara, Haven, Gaelen and... Laura Bell came out and signed and took pictures with everyone. Laura Bell came up to me and was like "You knew every word." and I was like "Yeah, I love this show, fifth time in a row." and Laura was all "Awww. Thats so sweet." I also told Micheal how I NEVER win his Myspace cast album contests. I wanted to tell Kate and Richard of my support for their NJ takeover, but they didnt come out.
Random comment--> These two British girls next to me had their mom/aunt, was being very wacky and fun, and they made my stage door experience. Also if the guy from the stage door tonight[you know who you are]is on here, send me a PM because we had alot of fun and you took some awesome pictures on my horrible ass digital camera.
Overall, still love BLONDE.
Pretty nice crowd tonight. Orchestra was pretty full as was the mezz. Not sure bout TOP mezz.
Stuck on the west coast. About to go back to work in LA. I am so envious. I would love to see LB and LBB again.

My mom saw it last Sunday and loved it!!!
I love Legally Blonde.
I know people think it's nothing special, but it has a special place in my heart for it's fun music and friendly cast.
It just makes me smile and feel good when I'm there, and I always dance in my seat and lip synch.
DOUBLE POST.
Nice to hear some good things about LB.
I wonder when Tracy is coming back... But I always hear great things about Cara.
Also, what time did you get there to get rush tickets?
Thanks for your review! Glad you had a great time!
I think Tracy said she plans to try and come back this week, but I don't know if that's set in stone.
PICTURES:
Very nice pictures! Everyone looks so cute all bundled up.
"Very nice pictures! Everyone looks so cute all bundled up."
Thank you.
Yes, they do!
My friend said Laura looked like a little Russian woman all bundled up.
It's ClumsyBlue and Michael Bluepert!
Glad you had such a great time! Your pictures are really cute. Laura looks funny (in a good way). Why is Michael so blue?

Most importantly, do you feel her Playbill bio was unprofessional?
"Why is Michael so blue? "
My camera was set on some weird function and it turned the picture blue. I have a picture of me infront of the pre-show curtain that I am dying to use as my myspace default, but due to the flash and the blueness, it looks so weird.
Phyllis Rogers Stone: Didn't really think about. Just love me some Legally Blonde! And yes, it did make me feel good.
