Mean Girls @ Savoy Theatre...

I went to the glitzy West End last night to see Heathers - sorry not Heathers, Mean Girls. I went to see Mean Girls last night - it's just it's so hard to tell them apart. Only Heathers is better. 
 
Ok, before you all call me a Plastic or put me in your Burn Book, Mean Girls in this case isn't the apparently really witty 2004 high-school comedy film about teen rivalry and fitting in (I've never seem it). It's the spin-off stage musical from that film - that itself was made into a musical film released earlier this year. Tina Fey again at the helm.
 
So having established myself as not really a Mean Girls fanboy I came to the musical cold. Much the way I left.
 
The musical was boring; trite, derivative, predictable, and forgettable. As I left, I couldn’t tell you a single song that was in it.
 
So I’m thinking, if you're a fan of the 2004 film - save yourself the money. Watch the film again.
