A fabulously fun award-winning musical based on the adored movie, Legally Blonde The Musical, follows the transformation of Elle Woods as she tackles stereotypes and scandal in pursuit of her dreams. Elle appears to have it all, but her life is turned upside down when her boyfriend Warner dumps her so he can attend Harvard Law. Determined to get him back, Elle ingeniously charms her way into the prestigious law school. While there, she struggles with peers, professors, and her ex. With the support of some new friends, though, Elle quickly realizes her potential and sets out to prove herself to the world. Action-packed and exploding with memorable songs and dynamic dances - this musical is so much fun, it should be illegal! The show runs July 11-August 11, and you can get your tickets here.

Hello, Monday! Chelsea here.

I’m a big fan of hidden gems. Especially when those hidden gems come with stunning views and no crowds. Ohio is full of all sorts of beautiful geological features, but this ancient spot is something else. After a decently challenging hike, you’ll find yourself faced with one of the most beautiful views in the entire state, which will make hauling yourself up to the top totally worth it. I hope your hiking boots are ready for a big adventure!

🎵 You might not recognize Ohio native and songwriter Benjamin Hanby’s name, but that’s not because he wasn’t a big deal. His first professionally published song reached the nineteenth-century equivalent of multi-platinum status, but Hanby didn’t let it go to his head. Instead, he tried to make the world a better place.
