VPAA is excited to present the Junior version of Mean Girls The musical in 2024. This junior show has been adapted for younger casts . Students know this show well. They are enthusiastic about performing this show and we at VPAA always encourage enthusiasm, expression and motivated actors. This show has a very good lesson & morale to the story. There is no inappropriate language in the show, however the show does deal with typical school social issues: Good and Bad. Some of the characters have malicious intent, and this show broaches sensitive school aged challenges , but the end result of the show is wonderful Kumbaya moment of celebration where valuable lessons are well learned. However, parents need to be sure this play is appropriate for their child before signing up.

“Mean Girls JR. is a hilarious and ‘totally fetch’ show with some very important lessons about friendship, authenticity, and accountability. Throughout the musical, we watch characters journey from changing parts of themselves in order to belong, to living as the unique and brave shining stars that they are, Cady Heron may have grown up in Africa, but nothing prepared her for “The Plastics,” a trio of lionized frenemies led by the charming but ruthless Regina George. But Cady devises a plan to end Regina’s reign, she learns the hard way that you can’t cross a queen bee without getting stung.

AUDITION LYRICS

GIRLS

IT ROARS : ( wait 2X8 + 4 counts) I’m Sixteen living in paradise, with just animals for friends, but today my life in Kenya ends, We knew this was coming and life often has goodbyes.You’re killers but I’m gonna miss you guys. Somewhere out there is a different kind of pride, preferably one that won’t eat me if I died. Human kids who might even walk upright, who will talk about dreams and boys and science. Cause that’s what girls do right?

MEET THE PLASTICS PART 1: (begin at 0:24 secs) My name is Regina George.And I am a massive deal. I don’t care who you are, I don’t care how you feel…. That’s GretchenWieners,she knows everything about everybody….That’s why her hair’s so big, it’s full of secrets….Yes Regina, No regina, Every waking hour I spend making sure Regina George can stay in power. If Regina is the Sun, Then I’m a disco ball cause I’m just as bright and fun.

APEX PREDATOR ( wait 2X8 +5 counts) Don't be fooled by the pink, She is not playing dolls, She is stalking the halls, For the thrill of the kill, Every person in school, Is aware of her stare, When she tosses her hair, They go perfectly still, All their eyes say, "don't attack me.", Watch them sweat and pant and shake, Every food chain has its acme, Regina, George eats steak, She's the queen of the beasts, She can smell your fear, In this biosphere, She's the apex predator, So I’m kind of friends, but you’re kind of prey with the apex predator. Will she braid your hair? Will she eat your heart? How can you out-smart? The apex Predator!

WHAT’S WRONG WITH ME ( Waltz wait 2X 6) Tell me what’s wrong with me, my body, face , my hair.? Tell me all my many faults. Tell me like you care. When we both know you’re cruel, and we both know you’re right. I could listen to you, like a fool, all night. What’s wrong with me?How I speak? How I dress? What’s wrong with me? You keep me guessing.

WORLD BURN : My name is Regina George, and I am a massive deal, I will grind you to sand, beneath my Lou-bou-tined heel.This is what I get for helping, helping someone lame fit in. Cody Heron, enjoy your temporary win. My name is Regina George, Regina is an “ugly cow” Hey Cady! How do you like me Now? I wanna watch the world burn . I got the gasoline. I wanna watch the world burn and everyone get mean. I wanna watch the world burn. I got the gasoline. I wanna watch the world burn and everyone get mean.

IF GIRLS DO NOT WANT TO SING, THEY CAN SPEAK THIS MONOLOGUE: “Here are the rules: You can’t wear a tank top two days in a row and you can only wear your hair in a pony tail once a week. Oh and we only wear sweats or track pants on Fridays. If you dare break any of these rules, you can’t sit with us at lunch. I mean not just you, like any of us. Like, if I were wearing sweat pants today, I’d have to sit way over there!!

BOYS

WHERE DO YOU BELONG: Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah..Where do you belong? Where do you belong? Where do you belong? Where do you belong? We all get a box, That’s where we go. It’s stifling but at least we know. so, Where do you belong? The cliques, the clubs, the sports groups, They all have their seat. And I’ll help you find your way around them. Debate team & dance team… Like to compete, and if they don’t win, their parents ground them.

MORE IS BETTER: ( Begin at 2 minutes 25 secs) I would prefer the girl you were, not who you’re trying to be. You think this works for me? Well you thought wrong. Looking at this place I see you trying to erase what is best about yourself just to belong. You say more is always better, but there is less of you than there was before, so if more is always better, then you should have thought it through a bit more.

DO THIS THING PART 1 (Begin at 0:20 secs) Welcome to the ICMT Star final Math championships, sponsored by no one! Please solve for..X equals two, the rate is two pi . X is greater than the value of Y. Both poly-no-mi-alsare second degree, so the asymptote-is at Y…equals three. The de-function X equals M X plus C. The der-a-tive of F at ar-gu-ment Z, Negative four, Negative two. The slope is zero, The answer is true. One point of inflection…Twenty nine. Four is the slope of the tangent line.

IF BOYS DO NOT WANT TO SING, THEY CAN SPEAK THIS MONOLOGUE: Hey you made it! I like your costume! It’s different from everybody else! No Really!!! You don’t look weird! You just feel like that cause you’re the new kid! I only moved here like two years ago. Well, that’s not really true. I didn’t actually move here. My mom lies about our address so that I can be in The north Shore school district. Please don’t tell anyone that!
