“Legally Blonde” is a musical based on the 2001 movie starring actress Reese Witherspoon. The story is a lighthearted, funny tale of Elle Woods, who enrolls in law school to win back her ex-boyfriend, Warner. “Legally Blonde” opened at StageDoor Theatre on April 13 to rave reviews.

When she was a young girl, Callie Graham of Bailey escaped the frustrations associated with dyslexia by entering her “art world.”
