What's that you say? A hit movie turned into a big splashy Broadway musical? That almost never happens. I'm kidding of course. After all, there have been twenty-nine shows since 1995 that have been nominated for Best Musical that were based on successful movies.
Nine of which took home the top prize. Now it's Mean Girls turn. The show, which is based on the 2004 hit film, will begin previews at the August Wilson Theatre on March 12, 2018, with opening night scheduled for April 8. Oh but wait. It get's better.
Writing the book for the new musical, is the film's original screenwriter Emmy winner Tina Fey, with music by fellow Emmy winner Jeff Richmond (30 Rock), and lyrics by Tony nominee Nell Benjamin (Legally Blond). Direction and choreography is by Tony winner Casey Nicholaw.
Prior to it's Broadway production, the show will play at the National Theatre in Washington, D.C. from October 31-December 3. Tickets for both productions are now on sale. Not only that, but we are selling them. Get your tickets to see Mean Girls on Broadway at the August Wilson Theatre, and at the National Theatre in Washington, D.C. Until next time theatre fans.
