I hate to be a fair weather fan but the AZ sports this weekend were abysmal. Even my beloved Sun Devils couldn’t pull off a win over San Diego State. Good thing for us there are lots of non-sports events to look forward to here in town!
“Mesa Encore Theatre is tickled pink to present an inspiring story wrapped up in the perfect pink production package, Legally Blonde: The Musical. The star of her UCLA sorority, Elle Woods is accustomed to getting what she wants and won’t take no for an answer! When her boyfriend dumps her for someone more “serious,” Elle puts down the credit card, hits the books, and sets out to go where no Delta Nu has gone before: Harvard Law School. And she does it, confirming once and for all that girl power can change the future. Against the odds, she moves to the head of class, and the top of the firm with her charm, Chihuahua and of course, the classic bend & snap move! Elle realizes, and America will too, that brain power is as potent as the power of perfectly coiffed hair and a pretty dress. Along the way, she also proves that kindness and compassion never go out of style. Based on the hit 2001 movie, this is a feel-good musical with a valuable message: Be true to yourself. See it at the Mesa Arts Center’s Nesbitt/Elliott Playhouse.”
How fun!
Enjoy!
