Southborough – Southborough resident Monica Canepa, 13, performed in the musical comedy hit “Legally Blonde.” The shows took place Aug. 2, 4 and 5 at the Governor's Academy in Byfield.

Kathryn Korostoff is Monica's mother.

“Monica has been enchanted by musical theater since she was five,” Korostoff said. “And while she has done many other fine musical theater productions, this one really feels like a mini-Broadway.”

Monica is the youngest cast member, and acted, sang and danced in the production.

Legally Blonde is based on the popular film starring Reese Witherspoon as “Elle Woods.” The high-energy musical was directed by Boston Children's Theatre Executive Producer Toby Schine with choreography by Carl Rajotte, artistic director of the Palace Theatre in Manchester, N.H.
