Legally Blonde in...Wien

[Fantasma da Opera]

Yup. The first choice of the new director of the VBW is "Legally Blonde". The show will replace Sister Act in February 2013.

Although Legally Blonde is way better than Sister Act it's still an odd choice...unless the idea was to give the contrast: in one stage - the Raimund - a depressive historical gothic musical (Elisabeth) - on the other a pink-bubble-gum-girlish musical (Legally Blonde).

It may work...or really p*ss off the Viennese tax payers who, in the end, are the ones who pay in advance for the VBW's shows.

I'm so glad it's a replica of the London show ! So much better than the tour productions or the hideous French one.
