MEAN GIRLS Might Make a West End Transfer

Could the Plastics be headed across the pond? Producer Sonia Friedman missed opening night of the Broadway show to attend the Olivier Awards in London where she spoke to WhatsOnStage about the possible future of Mean Girls in the UK.

When asked about the likelihood of a West End run for the queen of mean and her posse, Friedman said "we'd love to... certainly, if I'm involved, it's going to happen, isn't it?"

MEAN GIRLS features a book by nine-time Emmy Award winner Tina Fey, based on her screenplay for the Paramount Pictures film; music by three-time Emmy Award winner Jeff Richmond ("30 Rock," "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt"); and lyrics by Tony Award nominee Nell Benjamin (LEGALLY BLONDE). Tony Award winner Casey Nicholaw (THE BOOK OF MORMON, SOMETHING ROTTEN!) directs and choreographs.

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 devises a plan to end Regina's reign, she learns the hard way that you can't cross a Queen Bee without getting stung.
