Dear Friends, We are delighted to welcome you to the Academy of Notre Dame de Namur’s fall 2022 musical production of Legally Blonde. A story of a strong woman who empowers and lifts up those around her (with a fair dose of humor and pink!), Legally Blonde has it all--drama, comedy, romance, music, and dance--all set against the backdrop of the quintessential college experience.

We are tremendously proud of our young artists who have poured their hearts and souls into this endeavor. Being part of a production such as this demands hours of study, discipline, and dedication, but also generates rich rewards: collaboration, connection, and tons of fun. At Notre Dame, where we commit to teaching young women “what they need to know for life,” students have the opportunity to gain skills and life lessons both in the classroom and on the stage.

We extend a special thanks to those members of our talented faculty who have guided our young people across these weeks of preparation.

Our thanks go out to Mrs. Lindsay Miller, Mrs. Pam Devenney, Dr. Amanda Klause, and Mr. Ryan Lowrie for their vision, professionalism, and guidance. We know this is a labor of love, and we are deeply appreciative of your dedication to our students and to Legally Blonde.

Thank you for supporting the arts at Notre Dame. Enjoy the lights, the songs, the silliness, and the power of positivity!

Dr. Laura Hotchkiss Head of School

Mrs. Erin Pratt Director of Upper School

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.
