Mean Girls the musical: It’s ON and we won’t have to wait (too) long!

Well, it is happening and writing is well underway! Tina – who starred in the original film as maths teacher Ms Norbury – is writing the spin off with her husband, composer Jeff Richmond.

“There’s been quite a lot of progress on it, we’ve been working for a long time now,” Jeff told Yahoo.

“I’m going to say it’s like “60 per cent” written and it’s being staffed creatively. We are looking to do some actual solid readings coming around this summer.”

More news!

Alongside Tina and Jeff is Nell Benjamin (who wrote tracks in Legally Blonde) who is penning all the lyrics for the sings.

It’s thought when the musical is complete and the cast is chosen, it will have its first run on Broadway and, we’re assuming that if it’s successful enough, it could come to the UK.

The original Mean Girls cast included Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams and Amanda Seyfried. Who knows, maybe some of them will reprise their old role?

Come on Li-Lo, it would be immense...
