Legally Blonde Rochdale Cast

The supporting actors were fantastic, with some taking on two or three roles. Ben Maguire and Michael Thompson received one of the biggest laughs of the show as Nikos and Carlos in their brilliant rendition of «Gay or European.» Another priceless routine was the Irish dance between Paulette and UPS delivery driver Kyle (Dan Killeen). The hilarious dance moves of the teachers (Chris Robinson, Dan Fielden and Dave Edwards) also deserve special mention. Cesca Astley was perfectly chosen to play the eccentric hairdresser Paulette. She immediately made me laugh with her expressive nature and comic timing, Astley shows great verve as a fabulous comedy actress. Tickets costing £14 are available at: www.whatsoccurrinrochdale.co.uk. There were some issues with the microphones, unfortunately for Hannah Collins as Enid, who wasn`t amplified throughout the first act, but did well to cover and adjust her voice so that the audience could hear her quick and assertive comedy lines. Other cast members also had problems with the microphones, and it was a shame we lost some great voices and dialogue, but this can be forgiven as an opening mistake. With 52 auditions sent and a callback to President Dan Killeen`s home with an X-Factor follow-up, the main line-up was announced on July 17. After licensing the production earlier this year, the Rochdale Musical Theatre Company was faced with the difficult decision to move on or cancel the show and decided to hold virtual auditions to cast their show. This show has a large main cast that takes on the challenge of such a demanding musical. The main cast is skillfully supported by talented dancers from the ensemble.

To win him back, she discovers that she is more than a pretty blonde when she goes to Harvard and embarks on a journey of self-discovery, learning that «it`s never out of style to be true to yourself». Another honorable mention goes to Maria Markland as fitness mogul Brooke Windham.

Their opening in Act 2 of «Whipped Into Shape» was a feast for the eyes: combined with brilliant staging and choreography decisions by Jess Bray and Nikki Wilkinson, they created an eye-catching opening with excellent use of light and space. Also massive props for Maria, who jumped her way through the song without sounding breathless! Elle Woods, in particular, is a difficult role; It`s a vocally demanding role with very little offstage time. Leonie Picariello is a bright cubit, especially after «What You Want» when she really started to relax there. Picariello shows a breathtaking voice throughout, even through some energetic dance numbers: remarkably, she really lets go in «So Much Better» and demonstrates powerful high notes. The musical runs from October 1 to 9 at Champness Hall with matinees on Saturdays.
