Village Theatre Presents LEGALLY BLONDE
Coming to Village Theatre in Issaquah from November 12 to December 22, 2024, and in Everett from January 4 to 26, 2025.
Legally Blonde The Musical – the fabulously fun award-winning musical based on the beloved movie — brings an entertaining, upbeat story of self-discovery, transformation and empowerment to Village Theatre in Issaquah from November 12 to December 22, 2024, and in Everett from January 4 to 26, 2025.
“OMG you guys!” says Village Theatre Artistic Director Adam Immerwahr. “Legally Blonde is one of the most delicious musicals ever written, and I'm delighted that Village will be sharing our production with our entire community this season. This musical—with an infectious score, dazzling dances, and a hilarious script—promises more fun than you can even imagine.”
From a novel by Amanda Brown, to the beloved 2001 film starring Reese Witherspoon as protagonist Elle Woods, to the seven-time Tony Award nominated Broadway musical, plus an Original Broadway Cast recording, national tours, international productions, two spin-off films, an MTV Special, a reality TV series, and a forthcoming prequel series at Amazon Prime Video, Legally Blonde is a sensational story with legs.
"I'm so thrilled to be working at Village Theatre and bringing Elle's story to the Eastside and North Sound," says director Meredith McDonough. "What a beautiful time to celebrate strong women and being the best version of yourself—knowing smart is also fun and with great depth and heart comes great joy. Come celebrate with us!"
