Students at Mt. Olive Middle School recently presented the musical “Legally Blonde.” The production, which ran for three nights, included about 100
students in the cast and crew. They worked for more than four months to bring
the show to life.
“I was thrilled at how well the students performed in this production,” said Chris
Bosch, show director and MOHS teacher. “We always set the bar high and the
kids truly rose to the occasion with this challenging musical.”
Based on the novel and 2001 Reese Witherspoon film of the same name,
“Legally Blonde” tells the story of Elle Woods, a sorority girl with a penchant
for pink who enrolls in Harvard Law School to win back her ex-boyfriend.
Seventh-grader Ainsley Williams starred in the lead role.
Other featured performers included Joseph Richard, Mykaela Pocquat, Jon
Wade, Allison Berrios, Molly McDade, Leslie Spinosa, Valentina Matteis, and
Arianna Essington.
