What did our critic think of LEGALLY BLONDE THE MUSICAL at Essential Health Plaza At The Lights?

On “Pterodactyl”, the critically acclaimed quintet continue to perfect their warm patchwork of alternative, Americana, psychedelia, and soul. Working out of Nashville, TN’s Cartoon Moon Studios, the band reunited with producer and original Wilco/Uncle Tupelo drummer Ken Coomer. Plus, check out upcoming tour dates!

The UK’s The Lathums debut album, How Beautiful Life Can Be was released in late 2021 and immediately took the #1 spot on the UK charts. The band has released a clip from that epic show (which sold out in under an hour) - the band performing their single “Fight On” which was released one year ago today. Watch the new video now!

A masterpiece only made possible with the power of community spirit; the colourful cast of performers responded to a last-minute, open call after the original shoot stalled. 

For anyone looking for a purely fun show with great music this is it. This show will have you tapping your feet, clapping your hands and singing along. All Shook Up is a 2004 jukebox musical set to the music of Elvis Presley. The story in this production is similar to Footloose. We have a small town with rules against loud music, public 'neckin' etc.. We have an outsider who comes to town and try to change everything, and of course we have the hilarious multi-person love triangle, although it's definitely more than a triangle.
