In case you wanted to know....

I'm slightly excited about this.... It will be interesting to see how they make Legally Blonde into a musical. The "Bend and Snap" routine should be hysterical. Hopefully, Jennifer Coolidge will be in it... I don't picture her singing though. poo.

From New York Times April 26, 2006:

Legally Blonde' Coming to Broadway


The musical version of "Legally Blonde," the Broadway directorial debut of Jerry Mitchell, the Tony-Award winning choreographer of "La Cage aux Folles," has scheduled its Broadway opening for April 26, 2007, at a theater to be announced. This will follow an engagement at the Orpheum Theater in San Francisco beginning in January. The book of the musical, based on the novel by Amanda Brown that was later made into a movie starring Reese Witherspoon, will be by Heather Hach, her first for a Broadway show. Nell Benjamin and Laurence O'Keefe will also be making their Broadway debut as a songwriting team. In addition to directing, Mr. Mitchell will be the choreographer. CAMPBELL ROBERTSON
