Based on the hit 2004 film, Mean Girls: The Musical brings the world of North Shore High to life in a high-energy, laugh-out-loud Broadway sensation.
When home-schooled newcomer Cady Heron arrives at a suburban high school, she is quickly drawn into the orbit of the school’s most powerful clique, The Plastics, led by the legendary Regina George. As Cady navigates popularity, power, and identity, she learns that climbing the social ladder comes at a cost.
Featuring a book by Tina Fey, music by Jeff Richmond, and lyrics by Nell Benjamin, this sharp, candy-coloured musical blends biting comedy with genuine heart, explosive choreography, and an infectious pop score.
Bold, hilarious, and surprisingly moving, Mean Girls: The Musical is a must-see theatrical event for fans of the film and newcomers alike.
