Mean Girls Jr. In-School Performance

This is to purchase tickets for your child to see Mean Girls Jr. at Dominion MS during the school day on Friday March 14th at 1pm. The cost is $2 per student and the funds are being collected by their homeroom teacher (if in cash) or here online.

A frequent question that we get is...
"Why is there a cost for the show, when it’s during the school day?"

Here is why:
  1. Fundraiser: These shows are NOT supported financially by the school or district. Plays typically cost about $1,500 to put on (rights, costumes, building materials, props, etc.). This is a FUNDRAISER to pay for this and future productions. 
  2. Access: This is a way for students who may not have a ride back to school to come to see the show. This performance will be interpreted in ASL for our deaf and hard of hearing students.
    It’s cheaper to attend during the day - only $2 - versus the $3 they would pay at night.


Another question that we get is...
"What about those who don't bring in their $2 or don't have $2 to bring in?" 

  1. Scholarships are offered to those students who need it, when the homeroom teacher is made aware. There is an option when tickets are purchased to sponsor another child to go. 
  2. We make every effort, including providing ways for students to earn their ticket, with each homeroom teacher able to personally scholarship two students each.
  3. This is not a required event. It's an opportunity, not a reward, like the Students vs. Staff volleyball game, etc. We are giving more students the opportunity to attend the musical that almost 100 of their peers (1/8 of the school) are involved in.
  4. Those students that don't attend, go with a teacher from their grade level to catch up on work in a classroom. It's not a punishment.

We are excited to be able to offer this chance for students to see their peers in this musical production.

**Tickets for the AFTER-SCHOOL performance are $3 for students & $5 for adults, and can be ordered on a DIFFERENT LINK:

The Plastics have deemed Broadway Junior worthy of their presence in Mean Girls JR! This "fetch" musical from book writer Tina Fey (30 Rock), lyricist Nell Benjamin (Legally Blonde) and composer Jeff Richmond (Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt) is packed with keen wit, an undeniably catchy score, and a sincere message for everyone.

Cady Heron may have grown up on an African savanna, but nothing prepared her for the wild and vicious ways of her strange new home: suburban Illinois. How will this naïve newbie rise to the top of the popularity pecking order? By taking on The Plastics, a trio of lionized frenemies led by the charming but ruthless Regina George. Cady and her friends devise a "Revenge Party" to end Regina’s reign with Cady going undercover as an aspiring Plastic. When the lines between the real Cady and her Plastic self get blurred, she must find her way back to herself and her true friends.

Adapted from Fey's 2004 blockbuster film and the Broadway smash hit, Mean Girls JR. will be the queen bee of your stage!
