"...Based on the popular 2004 film, the stage adaptation is an energetic musical comedy that features a talented cast, excellent creative aspects, and an important message about female solidarity, personal empowerment, and the need to take responsibilities for your actions, especially when they hurt others....Tina Fey's film screenplay beautifully smashed gender stereotypes while depicting the negative impact of what can happen in a high school setting when everyone is jockeying for status or simply just trying to fit in. She also showed that smart women don't have to play dumb to win. While the musical adaptation of Mean Girls may not offer anything fresh and original from the countless other films, TV shows, and musicals that focus on the life lessons learned in high school, it's still an energetic, funny and upbeat story and a cautionary tale about the effects of betrayal in the social media age and that you don't need to be someone or something that you aren't to truly fit in." -Gil Benbrook, Talkin' Broadway (click here to read the complete review)
