Legally Blonde: the Musical
Indian River High School was unable to present: “Legally Blonde, the Musical” at the Indian River Theatre of the Performing Arts as a result of the Covid-19 crisis. Our staff and students worked hard on the production, continuing virtual rehearsals through May 2020 in hopes that the show could still go on. Unfortunately we were unable to present the show in a complete context. You can see a twenty-five minute video tribute to the work that went into the production at the bottom of this page.
“Elle Woods appears to have it all. Her life is turned upside down when her boyfriend Warner dumps her so he can attend Harvard Law. Determined to get him back, Elle ingeniously charms her way into the prestigious law school. While there, she struggles with peers, professors and her ex. With the support of some new friends, though, Elle quickly realizes her potential and sets out to prove herself to the world.”
