Let's hope they can pull it off. With the creative team they have assembled, it should be good.

It is a good team. I'm not a big fan of the movie, but maybe I'll like the musical.

That was adorable.

I have a feeling this show has a great PR company.

I don't really like the logo.

I think that's just a first draft logo.

I highly doubt that will be the Broadway artwork. The DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS artwork in San Diego was different from that which is on Broadway right now.

It's killing me not having dates for the SF run yet...I'll be going home from the US via SF in Jan and would really love to catch the show, if possible :) Not that I'm the hugest LB fan, and it seems an odd idea, but I doubt the show will ever make it here so SF will be my only hope

I know LB is prob. gonna be Elle...but I remember hearing some people want Kate Reinders...and I read a playbill interview with her and she said it was her dream role...that would have been cute if she got it...

Anyone know the artwork for DRS?

Oh okay, well that's good to know. Can't wait to see/ hear clips from this show.

Its early to tell but this actually looks pretty good; the creative team looks/sounds like they really know what theyre doing.

I can't wait to see it. I thought the movie was really cute, and with a team like that.....I have high expectations. I'm so glad it will be in SF. Mer, we better be going together :)

Laura Bell Bundy pretty much has Elle woods set in stone. The only other person i know that might still get an offer from the last workshop is Leslie Kritzer. She'll play one of Elle's Soroity sisters. Sounds like a blast cant wait!!!

What an excellent promo. I loved the movie...so I'll be interested to see how the musical is pulled off. Too bad Reese Witherspoon didn't play Elle. Now that would be a crowd pleaser. I'm going to have to try and see it in San Fran.

I wish the Pirate Queen would hurry up and put out some type of promo so the audience can get a feel for the show. This show also has a fabulous team! I'm expecting this productions to be fantastic.

I really hope Christian Borle and Andy Karl are still attached to this show, because that would definetely get me there quicker. Not that I don't want to see it, but I feel like they need the strong cast they had at the workshop.

I liked most of the workshop cast as well, but I don't like the idea of Rachel Dratch as Paulette. I watch SNL all the time and I just don't see her as a good choice for the role at all. There has to be someone better. Also, Scott Bakula as Callahan??
