THEATRE

Elle Woods is naturally blonde, (an important distinction). She’s also super-popular, an honor student, president of her sorority, a runner-up for Miss Hawaiian Tropic, and Miss June in the CULA campus calendar – and her signature color is pink. She’s led a wonderful life (she was in a Ricky Martin video!), but she’s not a clueless, spoiled brat – Elle, like her hair, has a heart of gold, and it belongs to her totally cute boyfriend, Warner. When Warner asks her to dinner at their special place, she assumes he’s going to pop the question and finally place “The Rock” (a six-karat Harry Winston) on her freshly manicured finger. Instead, he dumps her saying she’s “too blonde” and not “serious” enough for his future political career, and Elle is devastated. Determined not to give up, she decides to prove she can be what he wants – she’ll attend Harvard Law School herself. Legally Blonde takes you from the social whirl of a California campus to Harvard’s halls of justice with the bright new heroine, Elle Woods. The Verdict? This fun shouldn’t be legal!

Legally Blonds is directed by Mary Ellen Smith, produced by Matt Smith with choreography by Maggie Richardson and music direction by Allison Barnett. Performance dates ate July 6-21, 2012.

Legally Blonde is part of the 2012 Stagedoor Series.
