Franklin School for the Performing Arts (FSPA) SummerStage 2014 presents Legally Blonde: The Musical at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 7 and Friday, August 8. The annual SummerStage musical theater program casts students in grades 8-12 in the full-length musical production, while students in grades 5-8 will be showcased in an original musical comedy titled Paralegal! The Musical, with one performance on August 8 at 5 p.m. Both productions will be staged at Medway High School, 88 Summer Street.

Legally Blonde: The Musical is a feel-good stage musical adaptation of the smash-hit movie based on the novel by Amanda Brown. With music and lyrics by Laurence O’Keefe and Nell Benjamin and book by Heather Hach, Legally Blonde is a high energy, campy romantic comedy featuring tongue-in-cheek humor, memorable songs and a winning, upbeat style. The musical tells the story of sorority sister Elle Woods, who follows her ex-boyfriend to Harvard Law School intent on winning him back. But Elle learns to stay true to herself instead in this hilarious and heart-warming story of transformation and self-discovery. 
Featured roles will be played by Ali Funkhouser (Elle Woods) of Franklin, Jenna McDermott (Margot) of Wrentham, Kylee Rollins (Serena) of N. Attleboro, Lindsey Sparages (Pilar) of Franklin, Aaron Frongillo (Warner) of Franklin, Michael Fajardo (Emmett) of Hopkinton, Katie Gray (Paulette) of Milford, Julie Shapiro (Brooke) of Mansfield, Madison Asgeirsson (Enid) of Franklin, Katherine Waples (Vivienne) of Franklin and Catherine LeClair (Kate) of Franklin. 
In Paralegal! The Musical a clever middle school class takes creative license with a social studies assignment, bringing their demonstration of our legal system to life and the stage with comic song-and-dance style.
