Show Synopsis
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. Cady and her friends devise a "Revenge Party" to end Regina’s reign with Cady going undercover as an aspiring Plastic. When the lines between the real Cady and her Plastic self get blurred, she must find her way back to herself and her true friends.
Adapted from Fey's 2004 blockbuster film and the Broadway smash hit, Mean Girls JR. will be SO FETCH on stage!
Summer Intensive Experience
This Triple Threat Academy Summer Intensive offers a fast-paced but FUN education in musical theatre: singing, dancing, and acting, while working towards a culminating production of MEAN GIRLS JR. As a part of the KOS Academy division, everyone who registers will receive an on stage role. Through pre-camp rehearsals and the one-week intensive, cast members will receive training in acting, singing, and dance technique. At the end of our rehearsal time together, cast members will showcase their learning in a fully produced production with costumes, sets, props, lights, and special effects!
Tuition, Other Costs, & Fundraising
Tuition for this summer intensive is $135 per cast member. This production fee will include one-week summer intensive, a cast t-shirt, several pre-camp rehearsals, and the production script. Financial assistance and payment plans are available. Please email parker@gckidsonstage.org for info. Costumes may require a costume fee to cover rentals, alterations, cleaning, and other associated costs.
Due to the participation cost associated with our program compared to the high cost of producing a production, several fundraisers are required of the cast. Parents may pay a buy-out fee of $250 to not have to participate in any of the planned fundraisers. You can read more about the planned Mean Girls JR fundraisers here.
Most costumes will require a costume fee for cleaning, alterations, rental fees, or materials. These fees will be sent with the costume breakdowns for each cast member.
Tickets to the performance will be available to parents for purchase prior to the public sale for $10 each.
