Legally Blonde the Musical coming soon


Alpharetta High School’s Theatre will come to life with the spring musical “LEGALLY BLONDE, The Musical” on March 17th. This multiple Tony and Olivier Awardwinning, critically acclaimed musical is the all-singing, all-dancing romantic comedy about knowing who you are and showing what you've got! Performances run through Sunday, March 20th. Based on the Amanda Brown novel and the 2001 Reese Witherspoon film of the same name, “LEGALLY BLONDE, The Musical” is the story of college sorority sweetheart and homecoming queen Elle Woods (played by Morgan Shields). Elle isn't the type to take "no" for an answer, so when her boyfriend, Warner Huntington III (Cade Jarrett), dumps her for someone a little more "serious," Elle puts down the credit card, hits the books, and heads for Harvard Law School to win him back. With the help of her new friends Paulette (Kelly Lumpkin), Emmett (Josh Maddox) and her Chihuahua, Bruiser, Elle sets out to prove that she's got what it takes to become "serious" on her own terms. LEGALLY BLONDE's show-stopping musical numbers and its script with enormous heart are so much fun it should be illegal! AlphaTheatre’s production of “LEGALLY BLONDE, The Musical” is directed by Sarah Stoffle, with musical director Michelle Austin and backed by the talented Alpharetta Orchestra, directed by Sheldon Fisher. “LEGALLY BLONDE, The Musical”, will be presented Thursday and Friday, March 17th & 18th at 7:00pm, Saturday, March 19 at 2:00pm & 7:00pm and Sunday, March 20th at 3:00pm Tickets are $12 and can be purchased in advance at www.seatyourself.biz/alphaproductions or contact Nan Bodeep at nan@bodeep.com. Tickets are also available at the door for $15, although reservations are suggested.
