The Millbrook Playhouse Teen Performing Arts Academy Will Present LEGALLY BLONDE JR.

The Millbrook Playhouse Teen Performing Arts Academy students will have everyone thinking pink when they present their production of Legally Blonde JR. on Saturday, August 13 at 11:00 am and 2:00 pm. The fun and upbeat musical follow the adventures of a sorority girl named Elle Woods - a Gemini with a double Capricorn moon - who tries to win her ex-boyfriend back by earning a Harvard law degree.

Legally Blonde JR. may be a comedic, light-hearted show, but it also explores serious themes of self-discovery and independence which resonate with people of all ages," says Director Michaela Barczak. "We hope everyone is totally psyched to see the show."

Delta Nu sorority president Elle Woods seems to have it all: good looks, a relationship with the "campus catch," and great taste in clothes. However, her life is turned upside-down when her boyfriend, Warner, dumps her in an attempt to start getting "serious" about his future and attend Harvard Law. Determined to win him back, Elle uses a lot of hard work and charm to get into Harvard Law to prove to Warner that she's serious enough for him. Once at school, she is challenged by her peers, professors, and her ex, but with the help of some new friends, Elle realizes her potential and sets out to prove herself to the world.

With a book by Heather Hach, music and lyrics by Laurence O'Keefe and Nell Benjamin, Legally Blonde JR. is based on the book by Amanda Brown and the hit Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer motion picture starring Reese Witherspoon, which was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture: Musical or Comedy.
