Adapted from the hit 2004 film, Mean Girls was nominated for a staggering 12 Tony Awards. This show took Broadway by storm and has since joined the musical in-crowd. And now, so can you with Mean Girls High School Edition!
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. But when Cady and her friends devise a "Revenge Party" to end Regina’s reign, she learns the hard way that you can’t cross a queen bee without getting stung. Within three plus weeks the campers will audition, learn, and perform the musical from start to finish. They will learn harmonies and vocal arrangements, learn exciting dance numbers from professional choreographers, wear full costumes, work with professional sound and lighting, and perform in a theatre for a live audience. This camp will give students an experience that will challenge them and inspire them to work harder. Campers looking for a theatre family will be delighted to join us and find new friends. |
