DULUTH, Minn. — The Duluth Playhouse will bring the hit Broadway production "Legally Blonde The Musical" to the NorShor Theatre from July 10-26.
Based on the novel by Amanda Brown and the popular film, the musical follows Elle Woods, a fashionable sorority student who enrolls at Harvard Law School after a breakup and discovers her own strengths while challenging stereotypes about who she is and what she can achieve.
Stevie Deaun stars as Elle Woods, leading a cast that includes Aaron J. Dumalag as Emmett Forrest, Alex McLemore as Warner Huntington III, Grace Brinkert as Vivienne Kensington, Zoe Koep as Paulette Buonofonte and Sean Ryan Naughton as Professor Callahan.
Directed and choreographed by Ali Morooney with music direction by Amanda Weis, the production features music and lyrics by Laurence O'Keefe and Nell Benjamin and a book by Heather Hach.
Performances are scheduled Thursdays through Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. at the NorShor Theatre. Audio-described and American Sign Language-interpreted performances also are planned.
Tickets are on sale through the Duluth Playhouse box office and online at DuluthPlayhouse.org.
