Legally Blonde, The Musical, Amanda Brown’s novel and the endearingly hilarious 2001 film, is now a musical—one that can only be described as “so much fun it should be illegal!” Opening on Broadway in 2007, it garnered seven Tony Awards and 10 Drama Desk Award nominations. It’s the story of Malibu girl, Elle Woods, whose ambitious journey to Harvard Law School earns her first, the distain of her classmates for her fluffs and frills, but then their respect for her drive, intellect, guts and fashion sense as she takes on the trial of an alleged murderer.A “Greek” Chorus (as in Delta Nu!), a hairdresser, and an empathic law clerk guide Elle through the rejection of a jerk boyfriend, the terror of law professors, and the ultimate victory of discovering her true potential. With dogs, murder, legal moxey, amazing music, Chanel and lots of pink, Legally Blonde is a Cinderella story without the need of a prince.
