Omigod, you guys! The Dakota Academy of Performing Arts and Augustana University will present Legally Blonde The Musical July 26-27.

A fabulously fun award-winning musical based on the adored movie, Legally Blonde The Musical, follows the transformation of Elle Woods as she tackles stereotypes and scandal in pursuit of her dreams. Action-packed and exploding with memorable songs and dynamic dances - this musical is so much fun, it should be illegal!
