About Old Library Theatre

 

Old Library Theatre (OLT), Fair Lawn Recreation Department’s resident theatre company, is a community theatre organization located in Bergen County, NJ. Old Library Theatre was started in 1967 in Fair Lawn by a handful of dreamers who wanted to make the joy of theatre performance available to everyone. The original theatre was on River Road, but the company relocated to the George Frey Center for Performing Arts in the Fair Lawn Community Center in 2006. Now in our 53rd season, we aim to continue the tradition of providing quality community entertainment at an affordable cost.

 

 

A Note From the Director

 

If you are reading this while waiting for the show to start let me welcome you to Legally Blonde the Musical! If you are reading this at Intermission, How’s it going? If you are reading this after I hope you enjoyed the show. 

 

There is a line at the end of the show that says “Being true to yourself never goes out of style.” This is such an important part of this glitzy over the top story. I was drawn to this show at first because of the movie and the modern score. What makes me come back to this show is that lesson. Sometimes we all need that reminder to check in and be true to who we are on the inside. As the world changes so rapidly around us and we try to adapt to what is happening, we can not lose ourselves in the shuffle. The real you is never out of style.

 

I would like to thank Old Library Theater for giving me the opportunity to tell a story I love so much. Thank you to the cast, crew, and creative team of Legally Blonde. They are so talented, kind, and supportive. They are a special kind of human that you need to have around to tell Elle’s story. 

 

Finally, thank you for supporting community theater. The past few years have been so difficult for the theater community. We are truly glad you, our audience, are here and can’t wait to have you back again and again!
