Exclusive: Take a look backstage at the Savoy Theatre!

Mean Girls, the hit musical from Jeff Richmond, Tina Fey and Nell Benjamin, has released a selection of photos of the company.

The show took home the Best New Musical prize at the 25th Annual WhatsOnStage Awards at The London Palladium in February and is currently in its final weeks in the West End.

Based on the much-loved Lindsay Lohan-led flick about a girl who moves back to the US where she realises just how savage high school can be, the musical is directed by Casey Nicholaw – who will direct the upcoming stage adaptation of 50 First Dates – uniting once more with one of the Plastics.

Mean Girls will play its final performance in the West End on 8 June 2025. Producers have also revealed details for a UK tour in 2026, which you can read about here.

Starring in the musical are Charlie Burn as Cady, WhatsOnStage Award nominee Georgina Castle as Regina, Black British Theatre Awards winner Elèna Gyasi as Gretchen, WhatsOnStage Award nominee Grace Mouat as Karen, Elena Skye (Les MisérablesKinky Boots) as Janis and Olivier Award nominee Tom Xander as Damian.

Daniel Bravo takes on the role of Aaron Samuels, with Lucca Chadwick-Patel as Kevin Ganatra, Ako Mitchell as North Shore Principal Mr Duvall, while Ms Norbury – the role originated in the 2004 film by its creator Fey – is played by Zoë Rainey, who also plays the roles of Mrs George and Ms Heron.

You can see them, and the rest of the cast and crew, in the fetch photos by Becky Lee Brun below:
