The fact that it's not sold out makes me nervous.
I just checked... Orch Row R seat 111 is still available.

Posted: 10/19/08 at 6:32amAt 7PM tonight, I will be watching the MTV broadcast saved on my TiVo. I want to remember the Broadway run that way, not the way I saw it on Thursday.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

My thoughts on the decline of the show are at the end of the thread.
I am sorry to see it go, but it is time.

Posted: 10/19/08 at 8:02amIt was a fun show, and it had somewhat of a following, but its time has come. It's not selling anymore, and West Side Story needs the space. Blonde couldn't have toughed it out throught he cold winter months anyway, so it's good to close now.

Does anyone know if there are wheel chair seats at this show?
I want to go.
I LOVE the show. I can't bend and snap but I will snap my fingers at 7. I loved the original cast and must admit it I went to see the adorable dogs and cute and clever dance numbers.
It was a very entertaining show and I will be sad to see it close.
Does a fake bend and snaps her fingers. What will happen to the adorable puppies. That bulldog is soooo cute.

I'm gonna miss this show soooooo much. Legally Blonde is the show that got me hooked on broadway. Words can't even describe how much I loved this show and the original cast.
Whoever is going tonight please take lots of pictures and give a very long review tomorrow!

I'll be there tonight as well. Orch. Row O 127.
At 7PM tonight, I will be watching the MTV broadcast saved on my TiVo. I want to remember the Broadway run that way, not the way I saw it on Thursday.
Funny you mention that, as I watched parts of the MTV broadcast this week as well, and was reminded of how terrible Laura Bell Bundy was for most of the show. Her So Much Better was painful. The show has been in far better shape since she left.
Anyway, it's gonna be a great night tonight. I bet Orfeh will be CRAZY!

Posted: 10/19/08 at 11:56amI bet they'll play it off like how LBB did for her Last Performance. I heard she called Pilar "DeQuina" and said "can't look like a desparate whore". LMAO. By the way, will LBB be there? If not, she ought to be.
