Oscar Winner Reese Witherspoon's hit movie Legally Blonde is being made into a musical. Following the success of film-turned-musical Billy Elliot, theatre hands in America have decided to switch Elle Wood's story from celluloid to stage. Legally Blonde the musical is set to premiere in San Francisco next January, before moving to Broadway in April 2007. No cast members have yet been confirmed, although it's unlikely Oscar-winner Reese with reprise her role. (28 April, 2006, 8:13AM) SOURCE: THE SUN

She did sing well in Walk the Line so maybe she would do the stage version even though it is unlikely.

can't really see how it would work as a musical - BUT I am sure that the writers are much more talented and creative than I am so will wait and see the reviews
