'Legally Blonde' at Seven Angels - My Review

Waterbury, CT - ‘Legally Blonde The Musical’ is always big on energetic dancing, glitter and PINK, and the current production at Seven Angels Theatre in Waterbury is all of that.

Director/choreographer Janine Molinari likens her tasks to the journey taken by the show’s central character named Woods, Elle: “She is faced with many challenges and what seems like insurmountable obstacles. However, in her true pink and glittery modern hero fashion, her resilient self refuses to take no for an answer.” Ms. Molinari had two weeks and 29 multi-talented New York and local actors (including one dog) and Elle’s positive attitude to make it work. 7A Artistic Director Semina DeLaurentis explains that Actor’s Equity Association gives the theatre “the allowance to outreach to a certain number of local performers, giving them the opportunity and experience to work alongside professional actors, directors, choreographers and designers.” In this production, it is sometimes difficult to tell which is which because all are so talented.
