Meet The Plastics – Regina, Gretchen and Karen. They rule North Shore High and won’t hesitate to burn anyone who gets in their way. Home-schooled Cady Heron may think she knows a thing or two about survival of the fittest thanks to her zoologist parents, but high school is a whole new level of savage. 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.” Expect iconic characters, razor-sharp wit, and killer songs.
MEAN GIRLS, the smash-hit musical comedy based on the iconic Paramount Pictures film, had its first West End performance at the Savoy Theatre on 5 June 2024, playing to over 330,000 people until 8 June 2025. It recently won the coveted ‘Best New Musical’ award at the 2025 WhatsOnStage Awards.
