Get in, loser — we’re going to the theater! Based on the hit film, Mean Girls: The Musical is a hilarious and high-energy look at fitting in, standing out, and discovering who you really are. When Cady Heron moves from Africa to an Illinois high school, she quickly learns that surviving the “Plastics” — the school’s most popular (and ruthless) clique — is no easy task. With a pop-powered score by Jeff Richmond and Nell Benjamin, sharp wit from Tina Fey’s book, and plenty of girl power, Mean Girls: The Musical is a fiercely funny reminder that being yourself never goes out of style.
