About the show

Gentlemen Prefer Blondes tells the raucous and subversive story of Lorelei Lee and Dorothy Shaw – two smart young single women with a burning desire for experiences not available to them in the 1920s. Armed with vitality, ambition, quick wits, and unshakeable friendship, they play the men at their own game. Featuring songs like Bye Bye Baby, I'm Just a Little Girl From Little Rock, and Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend, this new production for WorldPride Arts sees a queer Australian team serve up a ship-sized slice of high-femme camp. Music by Jule Styne, Lyrics by Leo Robin, Book by Anita Loos and Joseph Fields.
