PCS Theater is thrilled to present Legally Blonde, the fabulously fun and empowering musical based on the hit movie of the same name. With a book by Heather Hach and music and lyrics by Laurence O’Keefe and Nell Benjamin, this dazzling production is directed and choreographed by Jessi Meisel with musical direction by Aimee Ferenz-Renna. Performances will run May 23 through June 7, 2025 at PCS Theater.
Follow the journey of Elle Woods (Rachel Catherine), a bubbly fashionista who seems to have it all — until her boyfriend Warner Huntington III (Craig Lauer) breaks up with her to pursue a more “serious” life at Harvard Law. Undeterred, Elle follows him to Harvard and discovers her true potential along the way. With the support of new friends and her own unstoppable spirit, Elle turns stereotypes on their head and shows the world — and herself — what she’s capable of.
