Legally Blonde – The Musical tells the story of college sweetheart and homecoming queen, Elle Woods, who doesn’t take no for an answer. So when her boyfriend Warner dumps her for someone serious, Elle puts down her credit cards, hits the books and heads for Harvard Law School.
Based on the movie of the same name starring Reese Witherspoon, Legally Blonde - The Musical is an all-singing, all-dancing, feel-good musical comedy that moves from the social whirl of California campus life into Harvard’s hall of Justice with a bright new heroine... and, of course, her Chihuahua, Bruiser.
Hosted by the Performing Arts Network of South Africa, KZN (PANSA), the civic umbrella body for performing artists nationally, Legally Blonde will be directed by Themi Venturas and choreographed by Daisy Spencer with vocal and musical support by Charon Williams Ros studio. The production follows the last 11 successful Young Performers musicals: Curtain Up, One Voice, Grease, Oliver, Fiddler on the Roof, The Wiz, Annie, School of Rock SA, Big River, Hairspray and Seussical last year.
Legally Blonde will be staged at the Elizabeth Sneddon Theatre from July 3 to 15. Booking is at Computicket. For more information contact Mandisa Tshiqi at the PANSA KZN Office on 031 201 4750 or email kzn@pansa.org.za or visit www.pansa.org.za
