Dylan Mulvaney expresses her aspiration to star as Elle Woods in the Legally Blonde musical, envisioning a fresh take by incorporating trans characters. In an interview with PinkNews, she stressed the difficulty of obtaining rights for the production. Actor Ryan Bauer-Walsh, familiar with the musical's rights holder, offered to help make her dream a reality. Mulvaney believes that integrating trans narratives into established stories can enhance their depth and impact, calling the opportunity 'powerful'. She's excited to pursue diverse roles beyond her public persona, eager for new challenges in her theater career.
"It is so hard to get rights for a musical. If anybody knows the people that have the rights to Legally Blonde the musical, please let us do it."
"I wanna play Elle and have maybe a trans Emmett and a trans Paulette. What's so cool about plugging trans people into existing stories is it inherently changes what the topic is."
