Amber Davies* will star as Elle Woods in the brand-new Made at Curve production of the West End and Broadway smash-hit musical comedy Legally Blonde The Musical. The musical will tour the UK and Ireland in 2026, opening at Leicester’s Curve theatre on 7 February and touring until 7 January 2027. 

Amber recently originated the role of Jordan Baker in the London production of The Great Gatsby, but has also starred in Pretty Woman The Musical, Back to the Future The Musical and 9 to 5.

Amber said “I'm absolutely thrilled to be playing the iconic role of Elle Woods in ROYO and Curve's new production of Legally Blonde. As a huge fan of the film and the musical, this part is the role of a lifetime, and I am honoured to be stepping into Elle’s perfect heels. I have always wanted to work with the incredible theatrical mind that is Nikolai Foster, and I am so excited to hit the road again and bring Laurence O'Keefe's incredible score back to the UK! Get ready Harvard... This is gonna be just like senior year except for funner!”

Legally Blonde is the ultimate feel-good rom-com, based on the award-winning film starring Reese Witherspoon, follows Elle Woods on her transformation from ‘It Girl’ fashionista to legal ace at Harvard Law School, all in the name of love. Elle must prove she is more than blonde ambition, swap the changing rooms for the courtroom and learn that ‘being true to yourself never goes out of style.’ 

Further casting and creatives for the UK and Ireland tour are to be announced.
