Legally Blonde JR. follows the transformation of Elle Woods as she tackles stereotypes, snobbery and scandal in pursuit of her dreams. When Elle's boyfriend, Warner, dumps her and heads to Harvard, claiming she's not "serious" enough, Elle takes matters into her own hands, crafting a showy song-and-dance personal essay and charming her way into law school. Befriending classmate, Emmett, and spunky hairdresser, Paulette along the way, Elle finds that books and looks aren't mutually exclusive.
As Elle begins outsmarting her peers, she realizes that law may be her natural calling after all.

PAVING THE WAY
PHASE III BUILDING RENOVATIONS
Three years ago, we made the community-changing decision to purchase and expand into the YWCA building at 3101 35th St. Since then, our growth has been remarkable. We've expanded our annual shows from 5-6 to 14, and our Stages Academy now serves over 500 students annually. With over 400 contract artists employed and nearly 10,000 patrons walking through our doors each year.
Building Community!
Our community rallied behind us as we made this pivotal decision, and your support has been crucial every step of the way. Over the past three years
-
Taken ownership of our space.
-
Installed new roofs over theatre and west offices.
-
Transferred the gym to our main stage theatre.
-
Replaced and upgraded HVAC systems.
Not bad for three years, but we are not done!
Your contribution to our Paving The Way campaign will directly fund essential updates to our building, ensuring the safety and enhancement of our facilities for all who walk through our doors. Every dollar donated will make a tangible difference, whether it's helping to replace a roof tile, renovate our lobby, or expand our workshop space.
