Legally Blonde

What's it all about?

Meet the blonde bombshell who’s not short on brains in the show that’s so popular it won the 2011 Olivier for Best New Musical. Perky Reese Witherspoon proved that blondes really do have more fun when she starred in the 2001 film. Now you can too as sorority sweetheart Elle embarks on a mission to conquer Harvard Law School – as well as a certain someone’s heart.

The jury is well and truly in on this wonderfully witty, fast paced and fantastically feel-good show. But if you have yet to offer your verdict, you should definitely go see Legally Blonde for yourself.

Who's in it?

Legally Blonde would fizz with fun and fantastic choreography even if you’d never heard of any of its stars. As it is, the stage is overflowing with screen talent, with Carley Stenson in the lead.

You won’t be disappointed by the eligible males on show either, with Stephen Ashfield (Jersey Boys) as Emmett and Ben Freeman (Emmerdale) playing Warner. And, perhaps one for the Mums here, Peter Davison (Dr Who, All Creatures Great and Small) plays the dastardly Professor Callahan.

As if that weren’t enough, no fewer than four loveable pooches have been primed to play Elle’s pampered pup Bruiser.

Suitable for

Well, clearly dog-lovers are in for the paw-fect evening. But whether you admire Elle’s spirit, want to see her get her man or just plan to watch in wonder at her wardrobe, we think you’ll find this show is a knock-out.

While youngsters will be bewitched by the Barbie house sets and bubblegum pink couture, if you’re a slightly older follower of fashion you will be raising an immaculately shaped eyebrow at the knowingly hilarious lyrics. Even determined cynics will bounce out of Legally Blonde humming the many, many memorable tunes.
