There's no mincing words here. If you've never seen LEGALLY BLONDE THE MUSICAL, you owe it to yourself to get to Midvale Main Street Theatre this week before its production of the show closes. It is the first, and at this point the only planned, non-student presentation of the musical in Utah, and there is little reason to believe there will be other opportunities to see it in the future. Thankfully, this production is more than worth the ticket price.

Stages St. Louis continues their 2013 season with the musical adaptation of the 2001 Reese Witherspoon vehicle, LEGALLY BLONDE. It's a pleasant romantic comedy that, like a lot of modern musicals, pokes fun at itself, but it also features a positive message about believing in oneself. The clever compositions of Laurence O'Keefe and Nell Benjamin are a nice complement to Heather Hach's reworking of the screenplay (based on the novel by Amanda Brown). Together, they create a bubbly and enjoyable atmosphere that's as light and fluffy as a cloud, and Stages St. Louis follows that lead with a perfectly charming and delightful production.
