All new photos have been released for the upcoming UK premiere of Jocelyn Bioh’s School Girls; Or, The African Mean Girls Play, directed by Monique Touko. The production opens tonight at the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre and runs until 15 July.

1986. Ghana’s prestigious Aburi Girls Boarding School.

Queen Bee Paulina and her crew excitedly await the arrival of the Miss Ghana pageant recruiter. It’s clear that Paulina is in top position to take the title until her place is threatened by Ericka – a beautiful and talented new transfer student. As the friendship group’s status quo is upended, who will be chosen for Miss Ghana and at what cost?

Bursting with hilarity and joy, this award-winning comedy explores the universal similarities (and glaring differences) facing teenage girls around the world.

The cast includes Alison A Addo, Heather Agyepong, Bola Akeju, Deborah Alli, Francesca Amewudah-Rivers, Jadesola Odunjo, Anna Shaffer and Tara Tijani.
