Review: Mean Girls Can't Make Fetch Happen at PPAC
by Andria Tieman - October 05, 2022
It’s a little bit surprising that the film version of Mean Girls was both a good movie, and also a hit. Based on a non-fiction book about high school cliques that was aimed at parents and teens, it was transformed into a charming comedy by Tina Fey in 2004. It’s not too much of a stretch to think that the creators could get lightning to strike twice by transforming this beloved story into a Broadway musical, but despite the myriad talents of Fey and music director Jeff Richmond, Mean Girls The Musical can’t capture the magic of the film and feels rather underwhelming.
