A fabulously fun award-winning musical based on the adored movie, Legally Blonde. Elle Woods appears to have it all. Her life is turned upside down when her boyfriend Warner dumps her so he can attend Harvard Law. Determined to get him back, Elle ingeniously charms her way into the prestigious law school. While there, she struggles with peers, professors and her ex. With the support of some new friends, though, Elle quickly realizes her potential and sets out to prove herself to the world.
Content Warning:
Legally Blonde: The Musical is a high-energy comedy. While it has an empowering and positive central message, it contains mature themes and language that may not be suitable for all audiences, especially young children. The story is a fun, satirical take on college and law school life but includes humor and situations similar to the movie it is based on.
Presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI) All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. MTIshows.com
