Theatre Club presents Mean Girls Jr.
- Adapted from Tina Fey's 2004 blockbuster film and the Broadway smash hit, the Mean Girls Jr. script is a coming-of-age story filled with laughter that is family and kid-friendly. 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. This naïve newbie navigates the wilds of the American high school and the social ranks by taking on The Plastics, a trio of lionized frenemies led by the charming Queen Bee Regina George.
- Performance dates - May 3, May 4, May 5, May 10, May 11, and May 12
