Based on Anita Loos’s 1925 bestseller of the same title, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes follows Lorelei Lee, a blonde from Little Rock, Arkansas, who embarks on a trip to Europe with her best friend and ex-Follies girl, Dorothy to perform in a nightclub in Paris. With a zany cast of characters including American Olympians, handsome billionaires, wealthy matrons and the “Zipper King” anything and everything can happen. Popularized in the 1950’s by a film adaption starring Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe and featuring the hit songs, “Bye, Bye Baby,” “I’m Just A Little Girl From Little Rock” and the iconic showstopper, “Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend.”
