Tina Fey's musical adaptation of her 2004 movie Mean Girls finally opened at the Savoy Theatre this June and has become a hot topic at the West End! Featuring a book by Fey, music from Jeff Richmond, lyrics from "Legally Blonde's" Nell Benjamin, and direction from "Book of Mormon's" Casey Nicholaw, the production garnered 12 Tony Award nominations when it opened on Broadway in 2018.

So, what are we waiting for? Is Mean Girls The Musical totally fetch? Or is it destined for the Burn Book? Let's see what critics had to say!

Critic reviews

"One of the fantastic choices that composer Jeff Richmond and lyricist Nell Benjamin make is to give each character their own musical genre." 

"Don your best pink shirt for this fun, life-affirming, super grool musical."- London Theatre

"The performances, too, are a pleasure. Georgina Castle is wonderfully spiteful as Regina, and Elna Gyasi brilliantly neurotic as the hapless Gretchen, constantly undermined by her own insecurities. But the standout Plastic is Grace Mouat as Karen, who introduces herself by saying "I may not be smart" and goes on to prove it in a sequence of brilliantly-timed blank interventions." - WhatsOnStage

"Most of the cast live up to the expectations of their Hollywood counterparts particularly Georgina Castle as Regina, who is a picture-perfect Barbie doll with a nightmarish glint in her eye." - The Stage

"Director/choreographer Casey Nicholaw, the man behind the indefatigable The Book of Mormon, certainly knows how to concoct a slick production. An artful set of screens play host to a panoply of scene-setting video projections, and classroom desks/cafeteria tables whizz briskly on and off with the actors still sitting on them." - The I

"Mean Girls successfully translates the wit and heart of the original film to the stage, while adding its own musical flair. The talented cast and creative team have created a production that will delight both die-hard fans and newcomers alike." - TheatreWeekly
