Legally Blonde - The Musical **** TNT
Friday 22 January 2010 17:27 GMT

A hit even before press night, this musical version of the 2001 film is as cheerfully chirpy as Californian sorority queen Elle Woods, who sets out to prove that blondes have brains.

It’s as insubstantial as candyfloss, but is lots of fun with Sheridan Smith playing a perky Elle.

Jill Halfpenny impresses as a beautician, Alex Gaumond’s reliable Emmet scrubs up a treat and the Chihuahua performs like a pro.

Savoy, The Strand, WC2R 0ET Charing Cross (0844 871 7687) legallyblonde themusical.co.uk). Until May 23. £20-£62.50
