Legally Blonde: The Musical tells the story of Sorority star Elle Woods (Alyssa Barzach),who doesn’t take no for an answer. So when her boyfriend Warner (Noah Drazen) dumps her for someone “serious” like Vivian (Elizabeth Lavelle), Elle puts down the credit card, hits the book, and sets out to go where no Delta Nu has gone before: Harvard Law.
