The Socastee High School Preforming Arts will be putting on Legally Blonde The Musical this March. 

Legally Blonde The Musical, which is based on the 2001 hit movie of the same name  staring Reese Witherspoon and Luke Wilson, opens March 8, 2012 and goes until March 11. Under the direction of Socastee High's Choral Director and Drama teacher , Farrah Beaudry and Matthew McCarty, Socastee High students are currently working hard to perfect their take on this Broadway show. 

Since McCarty and Beaudry started working together in 2006, they have grown the school’s Fine Arts Department. Within McCarty's first year of teaching Drama he increased the interest of the student body and grew the department by more than 50%. Six years ago, what started out as a cast and crew of about 40 students in their first show, Alice in Wonderland, has doubled to a total of around 80 students in this year’s production of Legally Blonde.

For the production of Legally Blonde The Musical former Carolina Opry choreographer Bryan Beaman is in charge of making sure every move is right and to the beat. Beaman choreographed the musical CATS and Drowsy Chaperone for Carolina Forest High, in which his work received critical state wide acclaim.
