Broadway Icon Laura Bell Bundy Joins Mahaffey Summer Camp for Special One-Night Event
EntSun News/11061022
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - EntSun -- The Duke Energy Center for the Arts – Mahaffey Theater is proud to announce a special one-night-only event featuring Broadway star Laura Bell Bundy, best known for originating the role of Elle Woods in Legally Blonde the Musical. Friday, July 18, Bundy will headline a cabaret-style fundraiser performance, featuring two solos, plus a special number from Wicked, where she starred as Glinda on Broadway. She will join the Legally Blonde Jr. summer campers from Mahaffey's Class Acts program for a collaborative performance.
In its third year, the Mahaffey Class Acts Summer Camp provides transformative performing arts education for students across the region. Ms. Bundy will lead a private workshop with the students, working with them to refine their performance, offer professional insights, and provide one-on-one coaching before their show the following week. The workshop itself is not open to the public, but the evening performance provides a unique opportunity to celebrate the impact of arts education and support future programming.
Guests will enjoy a Cocktail Dinner Reception, behind-the-scenes tours of the ballroom and stage set, and an opportunity to meet the cast of Legally Blonde Jr. The evening features raffle drawings and VIP seating in the front section for the performance, all in support of local arts education.
