Cady Heron may have grown up on an African savanna, but nothing prepared her for the wild and vicious ways of her strange new home: suburban Illinois. 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 and her friends devise a “Revenge Party” to end Regina’s reign, she learns the hard way that you can’t cross a Queen Bee without getting stung.
Adapted from Fey’s hit 2004 film, Mean Girls was nominated for a staggering 12 Tony Awards. This queen-bee took Broadway by storm and has joined the musical in-crowd. Lancaster Country Day School and Popovsky Performing Arts Studio is thrilled to collaborate on their summer production of Mean Girls High School Version!
Mean Girls is licensed by LCDS and will be directed by Michael Popovsky (PPAS) and assistant directed by Meg Schmidt with choreography by Christine Healy (LCDS). Vocal music direction will be provided by Steffan Bomberger (LCDS, PPAS) and instrumental music direction by Greg Woodbridge (LCDS).
While Mean Girls contains mature content and adult language, it also provides an opportunity for meaningful dialogue about healthy vs. unhealthy friendships, social media, bullying, and other important topics that adolescents face daily. The 2004 Mean Girls movie was rated PG13.
