Bord Gáis Energy Theatre has announced Steps icon, TV personality and West End actor Faye Tozer will star in the award-winning MEAN GIRLS THE MUSICAL. Faye will be playing multiple roles - cool Mom (not regular Mom) Mrs George, as well as Mrs Heron and Ms. Norbury. She'll be joined by Emily Lane (Frozen, Hello Dolly) as our heroine Cady, and Vivian Panka (Heathers, Dear Evan Hansen UK tour) as ultimate Queen Bee, Regina George.

Kiara Dario (The Great Gatsby) will try to make 'fetch' happen as Gretchen, while Sophie Pourret (Guys and Dolls) will be Karen, duh. The fetch new musical will run from Tuesday 25 August until Saturday 05 September. Tickets from €24.20 are on sale now through Ticketmaster.

Meet The Plastics – Regina, Gretchen and Karen. They rule North Shore High and will burn anyone who gets in their way. Home-schooled Cady Heron may think she knows a thing or two about survival of the fittest thanks to her zoologist parents, but high school is a whole new level of savage. When 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. Expect iconic characters, razor-sharp wit, and killer songs.
