(RED BANK, NJ) -- Phoenix Productions presents Legally Blonde, The Musical from August 1-3, 2025 at Count Basie Center for the Arts. A fabulously fun award-winning musical based on the adored movie, the musical follows the transformation of Elle Woods as she tackles stereotypes and scandal in pursuit of her dreams.

Though she appears to have it all, her life is turned upside down when her boyfriend dumps her while attending Harvard Law. Determined to get him back, Elle ingeniously charms her way into the prestigious law school, where she struggles with peers, professors — and her ex. But with the support of new friends, Elle realizes her potential and proves herself to the world.

Action-packed and exploding with memorable songs like “OMG,” “You Guys,” “So Much Better” and “Bend and Snap,” this musical is so much fun... it should be illegal!

Performances take place Friday, August 1 at 7:30pm; Saturday, August 2 at 7:30pm; and Sunday, August 3 at 2:00pm.  Tickets are available for purchase online. Count Basie Center for the Arts is located at 99 Monmouth Street in Red Bank, New Jersey.

For over 35 years, Phoenix Productions has been dedicated to the mission of providing quality theatrical experiences on both sides of the footlights. Since its first production in 1988, they have produced over 100 main stage shows providing on-stage and back stage opportunities for thousands of talented volunteers.
