Based on Anita Loos’s 1925 bestseller of the same title, GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES follows Lorelei Lee, a blonde from Little Rock, Arkansas, who sails to Europe with her friend Dorothy where she plans to marry the delightfully rich Gus Esmond, son of America’s Button King. However, on her journey miscommunication, hijinks & just plain too much money lend themselves to confusion and hilarity in the plot of this Golden Age Musical. The play was made into a 1953 movie starring Marilyn Monroe & Jane Russell. Hit songs include “Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend” & “Bye Bye, Baby”.
