The musical “Legally Blonde” will be presented three times by the Woodlands Academy of the Sacred Heart Theatre Program. All performances are in the Susan Saint James Performing Arts Center at Woodlands Academy, 760 E. Westleigh Road, Lake Forest, at 6 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 29, Friday, March 1, and Saturday, March 2. “Legally Blonde” is a high-spirited comedy that tells the story of Elle Woods, a California-based sorority girl who gets accepted to Harvard Law School in a misguided attempt to win back her ex-boyfriend, only to discover her genuine talent for law and the value of her own intellect in the process. Woods defies the expectations of her peers when she successfully defends a sorority sister falsely accused of murder. Female empowerment and the pitfalls of judging others based on appearances are themes throughout the show. This stage presentation, with music and lyrics by Laurence O'Keefe and Nell Benjamin and a book by Heather Hach, is based on the novel “Legally Blonde” by Amanda Brown and the 2001 MGM movie of the same name. Tickets, which are $15 at the door, can be purchased for $10 in advance. To order tickets, visit https://www.woodlandsacademy.org/legallyblonde. The show is intended for those 13 years and older.
