Which character do you play?
Margot.
In a sentence or two, sum up who your character is in the context of the story:
Margot is the seemingly dim-witted, boy-crazy, stereotypical sorority sister who is Elle Woods' (main character) best friend and who acts a part of her Greek chorus.
What do you like most about playing this character?
What I like most about playing Margot is that I get to have a lot of fun with the dancing and the singing parts. It’s also an awesome challenge that I have been given.
Have there been any challenges taking on this role?
The only challenges that I have found playing Margot would be remembering all the dancing and lines but that’s a given when given a large role. I am sure that there will be more difficult challenges that I will face later on as the show continues.
Without giving away too much, what are you most excited for the audience to see?
The thing I am most excited for the audience to see is the dancing and singing. This show is full of it but we have all been working super hard and they are already looking amazing.
Is this your first stage show/musical or have you performed before?
I have been in both Oklahoma and Jekyll and Hyde at St Paul’s and when I was at Southwell, I was in Me and My Girl and Annie get your Gun.
If you could star in any other musical, what would it be?
I would love to be involved in the musical Wicked.
Legally Blonde The Musical hits the stage at Southwell School Performing Arts Centre July 1-5.
