Based on the novel and the hit-movie of the same name, Legally Blonde chronicles the journey of the famously perky Elle Woods, a fashion savvy, UCLA sorority girl who appears to have it all. But when her boyfriend Warner dumps her for someone ‘serious’, Elle uses her charm to getting into Harvard Law School in an attempt to win him back. With some help from new-found friends Paulette, Emmett and her chihuahua Bruiser, she learns that it’s so much better to be smart. Legally Blonde is a high energy romantic comedy about knowing who you are and showing what you’ve got!
Nominated for Broadway World Sydney Regional Awards, Best Director 2018
“Jessica Fallico and her terrific cast and team deliver a bright, bold and slick, delightful extravaganza” (Sydney Arts Guide)
"A tight and slick production." (Stage Whispers)
“Jessica Fallico’s direction led the cast through the story, and each character had their own quirk that made them different and actual people on stage, not just characters. The audience had a lot to react to!” (Susana Danielle)
“The mammoth 49-person cast was engaging and realistic… and could effortlessly compete with the West End production.” (Weekend Notes)
“This is one of those rare instances where a stage musical derived from a movie is as good as – if not better – than that movie. And this staging by Packemin Productions at Riverside Theatres totally does it justice… This is premium level theatre.” (AltMedia)
