Anyone see Mean Girls (Broadway show) yet?

[holden]

I know that it's not in previews until March, but I think it ran for a bit in DC. If you saw it, is it ok for an 11yo? Not concerned about language but about any "adult" content.

I haven't seen The Broadway Show, but I don't think the film was appropriate for and 11 year old, so I wouldn't think the show would be either.

I agree about the film. I thought maybe the musical would tone down some of the content.

I would guess they wouldn't, if anything they sometimes ramp it up for the stage. Heathers wasn't toned down in any way for the stage.

I saw it in DC and think it was more adult oriented than the movie.

How was it as a show? and how did the projections work for you?

I also saw it in DC with my 13 yr old DD. She loved it but when asked said it was probably a little inappropriate for younger kids

It was very fun. I don't recall any strong feelings about the projections, so I'd say they were fine

I am asking because I am wondering if I should go to nyc. I live in Australia so hard trip

Ugh. I guess I’m a bad mom. Mean Girls was a vacation movie for our family. My 5 year old saw it. I think a lot went over his head.

 

[holden]

I put my tickets up for resale on Ticketmaster. If they don’t sell I guess we will go. I don’t want DD10 (11 at the time of the show) to see it if it’s not appropriate.

It's so much easier when they're little because a lot does go over their heads.

The projections were fine, didn't bother me. I liked the show, it was fun, but I didn't love it and I'm a huge Mean Girls fan. I'll be interested to read reviews when it opens on Broadway to see if they changed anything, specifically the music. The book and choreography were great, the music left a lot to be desired.
