MEAN GIRLS live at the Regent Theatre, Hanley

Meet The Plastics – Regina, Gretchen and Karen. They completely rule North Shore High and will 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.

Review: MEAN GIRLS at the Regent

The 2004 film starred Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams, Lacey Chabert, and Amanda Seyfried, and has been bought life by an incredible creative team including Tina Fey, Jeff Richmond, Nell Benjamin and Casey Nicholas.

The vocals are incredible, choreography slick, and each set transports you to a world of house parties, school canteens and classrooms.

The show was fun, energetic, uplifting, heart warming. With insane vocals, perfectly executed moves and costume changes, and brilliant performances, all round, it is an absolute winner.

So grab your friends and head to the Regent for the ultimate Easter party. Expect toe tapping tunes and incredible vocals that will make you smile all evening.
