In this episode, we chat all about how Tina Fey made fetch happen by bringing one of our favourite Y2K movies to the stage!

If you don’t know what Mean Girls is about because you live under a rock or got hit by a bus, Mean Girls: The Musical tells the story of Cady Heron through the point of view of her friends, Janis Sarkisian and Damian Hubbard.

Join us as we discuss the process from book to movie to stage production, the fearlessness of a performer who literally saved a performance by stepping into a role they did not cover, the changes made between the out-of-town run to Broadway and the stunt casting of Cameron Dallas.
