BALLSTON SPA — The students in the Ballston Spa High School Troupe will present their annual spring production, ‘Mean Girls – High School Edition’, on March 30, 31, and April 1 at 7:00 p.m. and April 1 and 2 at 1:00 p.m. at the Ballston Spa High School Auditorium.
Tickets will be available at the door and are $10 for adults and $5 for students.
Mean Girls High School Edition is a coming-of-age musical based on the book written by Tina Fey. Cady (Maddie Burns), raised in Africa, finds herself in suburban Illinois.
See how she survives and makes new friends with Janis (Fiona Hughes) and Damien (Benjamin Ferrara) within the craziness of the high school popularity pecking order. From the plastics Regina (Rachel Camilli), Karen, (Samantha Zavadil) and Gretchen (Katie Benanto), to the musics, to the geeks, and the Mathletes, we see the path that Cady takes.
Even though Mean Girls’ approach to high school life is comical, it does address high school themes like bullying, dating, being the most popular kid in school, et cetera. Cady’s journey in a new school is full of highs and lows, but in the end, “calling someone ugly doesn’t make you prettier” and “calling someone dumb, doesn’t make you smarter.”
‘Mean Girls - High School Edition’ is rated PG-13.
