About Mean Girls

The iconic movie is now on stage as a smash-hit new musical and its the perfect student treat. Broadway’s hilarious hit musical from an award-winning creative team including writer Tina Fey (30 Rock) and choreographer Casey Nicholaw (Dreamgirls, The Book Of Mormon) is delighting fans of all ages . Exploring the themes of friendship, bullying, social media pressures and how to always be true to yourself – the world may have changed a lot in the last 20 years, but girl world is quite the same.

Cady Heron may have grown up home schooled in Africa, but nothing prepared

her for the wild ways of her new school, North Shore High. How will this naïve newbie rise to the top of the popularity pecking order? By taking on The Plastics, a trio of lionized frenemies led by the charming but ruthless Regina George. But when Cady devises a plan to end Regina’s reign, she learns the hard way that you can’t cross a Queen Bee without getting stung.
