I personally love going to Broadway shows. My friends, on the other hand, tend to fall asleep when I drag them along. So sometimes theatre can be a little stuffy—A Long Days Journey Into Night is definitely a classic, but in the words of my best friend, “that show is really, really long.” Like you couldn’t figure it out from the title.
Lately, though, it seems Broadway producers are trying to attract a more youthful audience. Not only are there a slew of Disney shows (Tarzan, The Lion King, and the new Little Mermaid), but there’s even a musical adaption of Ms. Elle Woods in Legally Blonde. That’s one I can’t quite picture…. Elle and her pink stationary are cute in the movie, but I think she might be slightly annoying being all perky, and singing at the same time. A little overload maybe.
