Mean Girls

Hush now, settle down, kids, and let me tell you a story. Back in the storied year of 2004, if you weren’t quoting Mean Girls lines to your friends in everyday conversation, you couldn’t sit with us. Wearing pink on Wednesday was an unspoken rule, and if your friend had a “cool mom,” well, you knew where to find us after school. Many elder millennials still consider Oct. 3 an official holiday, and while nothing can compare to coming of age at the same time Mean Girls took over the cultural zeitgeist, getting to see its Broadway musical adaptation comes pretty close. Lucky for locals, the hit show is returning to Spokane for a two-night run, also drumming up excitement for fans awaiting this year’s musical film reboot, also helmed by original creator and comedy legend Tina Fey. Just this one time, I guess you can sit with us.
