I could live with a name for Callahan and maybe Warner, but Elle and Paulette should be played by proper musical theatre actresses. Tupele Dorgu murdered Ireland and I couldn't stand her portrayal of Paulette. Jodie Jacobs on the other hand...

I would've said the same for Molly in Ghost until the farce that was Sarah Harding. In a cast with "Roxy off EastEnders" I'd say nothing at this point is certain. I wonder if Amanda Holden is free?

Is this supposed to be funny? Yes, it's hysterical! It reminds me of an amateur performance I once saw!

For a amateur production, this is great! Singing and set are very good - would be happy with this level for the tour!

This is also a great amateur production in England! The one playing Elle is superb - she could make a good Elle on the tour!

Couldn't agree more, she's the best Elle Woods I've seen so her casting has made me want to see this tour after feeling pretty indifferent about it until now. It would have been great to see Phoebe Street reprise her role as Vivienne from the Curve production too but ah well!

I do hope, however, that they tour the original version and not the one from Leicester, as I really didn't like the changes. she's the best Elle Woods I've seen My favourite Elle is Susan McFadden, but Lucie Jones is a very close runner-up. her casting has made me want to see this tour after feeling pretty indifferent about it until now. I'll nonetheless refrain from booking until someone saw the tour, mostly because of their star casting. I've learnt my lesson after Tupele Dorgu.

Saw Lucie as Elle last year and she was good in the role, so casting her for the tour makes sense and with her doing Eurovision it will help the show's publicity. I'll be interested to know who is what role among the rest of the cast as there are some good featured roles in it.
