FHS drama director Tracy Gillett said, “This is the first performance in 3 years. We haven’t performed since The Addams Family Musical in the 2018-2019 school year. We are so excited to perform.” Gillett is being assisted by co-drama director Kenneth Turner. Seen here are cast members, Elle Woods played by Aliya Gillett (10th grade), and Emmett Forrest played by Justin Sandoval (7th grade).

Forks Drama Club students will have Forks thinking pink when they present their production of Legally Blonde JR. beginning Friday, March 3, 2023. The fun and upbeat musical follows the adventures of a sorority girl named Elle Woods – a Gemini with a double Capricorn moon – who tries to win her ex-boyfriend back by earning a Harvard law degree.

Delta Nu sorority president Elle Woods seems to have it all: good looks, a relationship with the “campus catch,” and great taste in clothes. However, her life is turned upside-down when her boyfriend, Warner, dumps her in an attempt to start getting “serious” about his future and attend Harvard Law.

Determined to win him back, Elle uses a lot of hard work and some charm to get into Harvard Law so she can prove to Warner that she’s serious enough for him. Once at school, she is challenged by her peers, professors, and her ex, but with the help of some new friends, Elle realizes her potential and sets out to prove herself to the world.

Forks Drama Club will present Legally Blonde JR. on Friday, March 3rd at 7 p.m., Saturday, March 4 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m, and on Sunday, March 5 at 2 p.m. in the Forks High Schools Commons.
