SYNOPSIS

Based on the novel and the hit-movie of the same name, Legally Blonde: the Musical chronicles the journey of the famously perky Elle Woods, a fashion-savvy, UCLA sorority girl who finds her life turned upside down when she is dumped by her boyfriend Warner. In an effort to prove to Warner that she is more than just some blonde sorority girl, she follows him to Harvard Law, where she struggles to fit in and do well. Ultimately, she defies expectations and manages to stay true to her delightfully pink personality.

REVIEWS

NODA REVIEW

“The team of choreographers under the direction of Nick Brannam produced some really original moves and interpretations. I am sure many of the dancers would not have dreamt of skipping and singing at the same time last year.”

PRESS REVIEWS

“It’s no surprise that all of this has been directed and choreographed by 25 year-old Nick Brannam, who has proven himself to have astounding creative vision at the helm, and demonstrates it once again here.”

The Basingstoke Gazette – Read full review

“Director Nick Brannam and musical director Rachel Glover delivered a fantastic musical, bringing the most out of the show and their young, dynamic company.”

Newbury Weekly News – Read full review

“Director/choreographer Nick Brannam may have used an online version as a template but a multi-talented cast is a pre-requisite in being able to deliver it and the standing-ovation was affirmation that they certainly are.”
