bradleyk Posted February 16, 2015 #1 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I am very excited for our October cruise on the Getaway. This will be our second cruise together (my third), and our first on Norwegian. I have read so many great reviews of the ship on here. But I have yet to read anything positive about Legally Blonde. Most reviews range from dreadful to ok. Most seem to find the show boring and uninspired. Is there any talk of NCL changing to some other show?

rentlady Posted February 16, 2015 #2 Share Posted February 16, 2015 This was just dreadful! Usually the entertainment is fabulous, what a disappointment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiamiSpartan Posted February 16, 2015 #3 Share Posted February 16, 2015 We were actually pleasantly surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KeithJenner Posted February 16, 2015 #4 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I imagine that there is a fixed contract, so it will be there for a while. From what I can tell, lots of people attend the shows, whatever the reviews are like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali70 Posted February 16, 2015 #5 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I love Legally Blonde. I didn't see it on a ship though, I saw it in London. It's very funny and much better than the film Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a good depiction of the movie in a shortened form. Granted it is not Broadway, but for cruise ship entertainment it was energetic and well staged.

garnet115 Posted February 16, 2015 #7 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Well, Epic is getting new entertainment this Fall. The ship launched in 2010, so I am guessing you've got another 4 years before the switch out Legally Blonde on Getaway. I am looking forward to the show when I sail next year. After 3 trips on Breakaway, I have no interest in seeing Rock of Ages again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammierose464 Posted February 16, 2015 #8 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I've seen Legally Blonde twice, once professionally in Detroit and once through community theater. I think it's a great show and lots of fun, I think the only way it wouldn't be good is if the cast isn't good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr and Mrs C Posted February 16, 2015 #9 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I didn't care for it, but you may love it. It is a free show so if you have time give it a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roger001 Posted February 16, 2015 #10 Share Posted February 16, 2015 For free, and it being a cruise ship show, it was ok. However,it just didn't really work for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennyprovo Posted February 16, 2015 #11 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Was it a Broadway performance? No. It was entertaining and was free. I thought it was worth my time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradleyk Posted February 16, 2015 Author #12 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Now, I am a firm believer that nothing is for free on the ship. We pay for the entertainment, food, and cabins with our cruise fare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamr Posted February 16, 2015 #13 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Oh gosh! I hope they don't change it before I get a chance to see it! I absolutely LOVE that show. I've been dying to get on the Getaway ever since it was first announced that it would have Legally Blonde on it! I actually DID book the Getaway (just for Legally Blonde, of course!)...then they canceled the cruise and bumped me to the Escape. I just couldn't pass up a very well discounted cruise on a brand spankin' new ship, so I figured I could go with the Getaway next time. Legally Blonde better still be on there or I will be devastated! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acmama901 Posted February 17, 2015 #14 Share Posted February 17, 2015 We saw Legally Blonde on our Getaway cruise last year and it will be a must for our upcoming Getaway cruise this September. I really enjoyed it and it was a huge hit with my 8 year old daughter. For some perspective, I didn't feel like it was as big of a "production" as Hairspray on Oasis. The theater is just smaller, but the performers were very good and enthusiastic, especially the leads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
