Becky Gulsvig plays Elle Woods in the national tour of Legally Blonde. She was understudy in that role in the Broadway production.

PROVIDENCE -- The Legally Blonde tour, starring Broadway understudy Becky Gulsvig, gets under way in a preview performance Sunday at the Providence Performing Arts Center. The show starts its run Sept. 23.

The opening of a national tour here is something of a coup for the theater and the city, which has been hosting the cast and crew for most of the month as they prepared to take the show on the road for the next year.

The show, about sorority sister Elle Woods who enrolls in Harvard Law to try to win back the boyfriend who dumped her, runs through Sept. 28.
