Actors' Playhouse has revealed the complete cast and creative team for Legally Blonde The Musical playing January 31 - February 25, 2024 at the Miracle Theatre. The ultimate Broadway tribute to girl power, Legally Blonde will take you from the UCLA sorority house to the Harvard halls of justice with the coming-of-age story of Broadway's brightest heroine.
Based on the iconic movie, Legally Blonde is an invigorating gift of musical fun, wrapped up with a snappy pink bow! Elle Woods is the southern California co-ed cutie who is accustomed to getting what she wants. When her boyfriend, Warner, calls it off because she is not serious about her future, Elle turns her attention from fashion to the books and enrolls in Harvard Law School. Along the way, Elle proves that kindness and compassion never go out of style. This high-energy show was written by Heather Hach with a catchy score with music and lyrics by Laurence O'Keefe and Nell Benjamin.
The show stars Becca Andrews as Elle Woods. Making her Actors' Playhouse debut, Miss Andrews is no stranger to the role having starred in several regional productions of Legally Blonde throughout the United States.
As Paulette Bonafonte, the beautician who encourages Elle to be true to herself and her natural hair color, Actors' Playhouse is happy to welcome back Heather Jane Rolff who last appeared at the Miracle Theatre as Rusty in the 2008 production of Footloose (Carbonell Award nomination).
Actors' Playhouse alum and Dear Evan Hansen Broadway star Stephen Christopher Anthony returns home to play Emmett Forrest the Harvard teaching assistant who sees Elle's true potential. Alexander Zenoz plays the handsome but self-centered Warner Huntington III, Elle's college boyfriend. Michael Dean Morgan is the formidable Professor Callahan. Hana Slevin is cast as the prestige-seeking Vivienne Kensington, Elle's nemesis. Stephanie White whips us into shape as the fitness queen, Brooke Wyndam. As Pilar, Margo and Serena, the melodic voices of Whitney Renee, Nicolette Hernandez and Camryn Handler will harmonize as Elle's' trusted muses.
Rounding out the company are Diego Klock-Pérez, David Nick Alea, Zach Eisenberg (Dance Captain), Taylor Hilt Mitchell, Hugo E. Moreno, Jessica Sanford, AJ Cola, Corinne Holland, Melanie Johnston, Faythe Kelly, Regan White, Robert Ayala, and Piper Loebach.
