Legally Blonde Synopsis &
Storyline
After a pair of hit movies, beloved blonde Elle Woods is getting ready
to step into the spotlight at Broadway's Palace Theatre. A new musical
version of Legally Blonde begins performances in April 2007,
and everyone's talking about how this overachieving fashionista will
work her magic on the stage. After all, when you've been president of
Delta Nu sorority and a Hawaiian Tropic girl, conquering Harvard
Law—and the Great White Way—should be a cinch.
Legally Blonde will mark the Broadway directorial debut of Tony
Award-winning choreographer Jerry Mitchell, whose credits include
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Hairspray, La Cage aux Folles
and The Full Monty. Music and lyrics are by Nell Benjamin and
Laurence O'Keefe (collaborators on several TheatreworksUSA musicals),
and the book is by Heather Hach (co-writer of the hit film Freaky
Friday). Plan now to catch Ms. Woods and the rest of the film's
characters onstage in a big new Broadway musical.
