Mean Girls: High School Edition, November 13-16

November 13 through November 16 in the Performing Arts Center

Get in, loser—we’re going to the theater! Based on Tina Fey’s hit movie, Mean Girls: The Musical brings the hilariously relatable world of high school drama to the stage with catchy songs, sharp wit, and a ton of pink. When new student Cady Heron steps into North Shore High, she’s thrown into a jungle of cliques, crushes, and queen bees. But as she tries to fit in with “The Plastics,” she learns the hard way that popularity comes at a price—and that staying true to yourself never goes out of style.

Filled with laugh-out-loud moments and heart, Mean Girls: The Musical is a fetch celebration of friendship, forgiveness, and fierce individuality.
