Tina Fey's 'Mean Girls' musical is closing on the West End
Briefly

Tina Fey's musical adaptation of 'Mean Girls' will end its run at the Savoy Theatre in London after a year, despite being one of 2024's significant West End openings. Although it was generally well-received for its humor, critiques of the songs diminished its acclaim. Following an earlier closure on Broadway, the production’s future seems short-lived in London. However, a UK tour is scheduled for next year, allowing fans outside the capital to experience the show. Upcoming possibilities for the Savoy Theatre include a musical adaptation of 'Burlesque' and a potential 'Paddington' production.
