Legally Blonde

She’s smarter than they think. Stronger than they know. And ready to prove everyone wrong—in heels. Elle Woods has it all: style, charm, and a perfectly pink plan to marry her college sweetheart, Warner Huntington III. But when he dumps her for someone more “serious,” Elle doesn’t get mad—she gets into Harvard Law. What begins as a quest to win back her ex quickly turns into a journey of self-discovery, proving that you don’t have to choose between being smart and being yourself.

Legally Blonde is the feel-good, high-energy musical that celebrates confidence, friendship, and finding your own voice. Nominated for seven Tony Awards, the musical based on the smash hit Reese Witherspoon movie reminds audiences that being yourself never goes out of style. Whether it’s your first time or your fiftieth, Elle Woods is pure joy. Because smart is the new pink.

A preshow talk is offered in the West Lobby 30 minutes prior to curtain.
