Some good news (especially for the theatre community!!)

There’s gonna be a west end revival of legally blonde, and the cast is super diverse!!

We have Courtney Bowman (a plus sized black woman) playing Elle!

From what I can tell the cast is mostly POC. Plus the show features two trans people, playing Enid and Margot!

(Issac Hesketh who’s playing Margot uses they/she/he pronouns. I unfortunately couldn’t find Alžbeta Matyšáková’s pronouns, but they’re gonna play Enid!)

Emmet and Paulette will also be played by black actors!

I genuinely cannot wait.

#it really isn’t hard to make your show diverse #Elle being played by a plus sized WOC adds so much more nuisance to the show #genuinely wish all shows were this diverse #it’s being directed by Lucy Moss btw #same person who co-worked on Six #legally blonde #legally blonde the musical #musicals #west end #Broadway #diversity #transgender #non binary #trans #this was announced like 5 weeks back but I just had to post about it #musical theatre #elle woods #Lucy Moss #Six #six the musical #good news #gwendols rambles
