“Parody heaven”
Six Chick Flicks …or a Legally Blonde Pretty Woman Dirty Danced on the Beaches while writing a Notebook on the Titanic gives us what we want. Parody of all the tropes of our favourite movies whilst also cleverly highlighting the potholes and issues with them.
Kerry Ipema and KK Apple are insanely talented, their multi roling ability is off the charts and then you throw in the singing. They jump between characters and genders effortlessly and never miss a punchline.
Energy does start to dip after the fourth rom-com when the trope of the show is clear, however Ipema and Apple then dive into a live improv which is equally impressive.
My issue with the show is entirely personal however, I think Legally Blonde is a flawless show and therefore should not be parodied – but Ipema and Apple did it well, one of the best Jennifer Coolidge impressions I’ve seen.
It’s clever, funny and fast paced, definitely one not to miss.
