Description
We're sorry, but this activity is over. The last meeting was Monday, April 15, 2024.
Class Dates: Mondays from January 29 - April 15No Class: February 19 & March 25Rain Date: TBDMandatory Rehearsal: Tuesday, April 16Show Date: Wednesday, April 17In an all-encompassing theatrical experience, students learn acting, singing and dancing as well as production disciplines such as costumes, props, make-up and staging and use these skills in a performance of Mean Girls Jr. in the Amaturo Theater. This new musical from book writer Tina Fey (30 Rock), lyricist Nell Benjamin (Legally Blonde) and composer Jeff Richmond (Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt) is packed with keen wit, an undeniably catchy score, and a sincere message for everyone. 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. Cady and her friends devise a "Revenge Party" to end Regina’s reign with Cady going undercover as an aspiring Plastic. When the lines between the real Cady and her Plastic self get blurred, she must find her way back to herself and her true friends.
Adapted from Fey's 2004 blockbuster film and the Broadway smash hit, the Mean Girls JR. script was specifically written for tween groups to perform.
