Definitely seems like a fun, energetic show. Curious to catch it. Is the set just a big giant LED screen?

There are a few practical set pieces like desks, tables, countertops, beds, lockers, but yes, most of it is the screen.

The set is one big Blue Screen of Death waiting to happen.

A blank blue screen would be more interesting than 80% of the score.

Wow - that looks incredible. Similar to the FROZEN trailer, it's beautifully edited. I love the image of Regina in all black with the black and white screens when she's throwing the papers.

Wow this score sounds incredibly forgettable.

What a shame.

And Nell Benjamin is the best part of Legally Blonde.

If nothing in the promo for this kinda show, sounds like it could stick you're in trouble

Am I the only one who understood like, three words that they sang?

I had this same problem while seeing the show/watching the video. It's way too wordy.

I had completely forgotten both of the songs used in that footage were even in the show. And they were two of the “better” musical moments.

That being said, this is effective marketing because it moves so quickly through so much stuff, it almost makes it seem like it’s not a copy-paste job from the movie.

The best part of the show in my opinion. Loved the tonal shift of this moment.

Nope. Theres too much going on and I have no clue what barret is saying.

For me, Taylor Louderman has gotten better (after being one of the hardest people to understand in DC). Ashley Park was hard to understand when she sings faster lyrics and when Barrett starts belting high, I have zero idea what she's saying.

Well that was forgettable

They’ve been so smart with all of their marketing up until now. That clip makes it look worse than it is.

The clip did not automatically play in HD, and the sound mix was pretty awful sounding in the standard. Switching to the HD stream helped, but I'm curious if that's how bad the sound mixing is in the theatre. The band and ensemble were completely overpowering the principals.

Set looks really cool, I'm down

Score sounds awful

Is that leftover B roll of LEGALLY BLONDE?

What score? There were snippets of 2 songs

[Famebroadway2]

The sound mixing in the theater sounds as bad as it does on that promo. Its like the orchestrations are fighting each other half the time.
The score is very clunky and messy.

The set looks as ugly on video as it did in photos. And the score oy vey.

So sad this ended up being so lackluster. Though I've never LOVED the film. Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen was a much more interesting use of many of the same tropes.

I like Wild Life way better than It Roars. I remembered WL right away and it had character. It Roars sounds like any song and I can barely understand Erika.

Wildlife at least had a distinctive camp value to it. If not a GREAT number at lest it had that.

I too preferred Wildlife
