Legally Blonde Passage Of Time

Decent Essays
Although a high school production, Legally Blonde by George Washington was an instant classic as the director dealt with scene issues masterfully and how the actors also dealt with lines and preparing for the unexpected. Legally Blonde was on show for a short period of days yet will always leave a lasting legacy in drama history. The director, Kyle Woollums, demonstrated the passage of time cleverly but did so without changing scenes. For example, the scene that contained “chip on your shoulder would show the director's use of changing time. While thinking about this the thought of the director not giving it much attention came to mind. The reason for not giving much significant attention would be because it would be difficult to portray
