Frequently Asked Questions

When is Mean Girls the Musical in Nottingham?

Mean Girls the Musical is in Nottingham from Tuesday 3 November to Saturday 7 November 2026. All performances take place at the Royal Concert Hall, part of Theatre Royal & Royal Concert Hall Nottingham.

Where is Mean Girls being performed in Nottingham?

The show is performed in the main auditorium at the Royal Concert Hall on South Sherwood Street, near Nottingham city centre. It is close to tram and bus stops, with several nearby car parks, and surrounded by shops, bars, and restaurants if you want to eat or have drinks before or after the performance.

What is Mean Girls the Musical about?

Mean Girls follows Cady Heron, who moves from being homeschooled in Africa to an American high school and finds herself pulled into the powerful clique known as the Plastics. As she joins a plan to take down their queen bee Regina George using secrets and the Burn Book, Cady gets caught up in bullying and high school politics and eventually learns that kindness, honesty, and being herself matter more than fitting in.

How long does the Mean Girls show last in Nottingham?

The running time is listed as 2 hours 45 minutes including a 20-minute interval. Doors open around an hour before each performance, so allowing about three hours in total will give you plenty of time to arrive, find your seat, enjoy the interval, and leave the theatre comfortably at the end.

Is Mean Girls suitable for children and families?

The age guidance in Nottingham is 10+, with under 14s required to be accompanied by an adult aged 18 or over. The show contains some strong language, suggestive humour, and themes such as bullying, peer pressure, and teenage relationships, so it is best suited to older children, teenagers, and adults.

Has Mean Girls the Musical won any awards?

Mean Girls has received twelve Tony Award nominations on Broadway, including Best Musical, Best Book of a Musical, and Best Original Score. In the UK, it has also won Best New Musical at the WhatsOnStage Awards, an audience-voted honour that shows how popular and well loved it is with theatregoers.

How can I get cheap tickets for Mean Girls in Nottingham?

To get cheaper tickets, look at Tuesday to Thursday evening performances and the Thursday matinee, as these dates have specific discounts for under 26s and groups and often more availability in lower price bands. Avoid focusing only on Friday evening and Saturday shows, because no discounts are offered on those performances and they sell out fastest.

What discounts or special offers are available?

For Tuesday to Thursday 7:30pm and Thursday 2pm performances, under 26s can save £5 in the Stalls and Tier 1, and groups of 10 or more also save £5 per ticket with one free ticket for every 20 seats booked. Members of the venue’s schemes, such as Friends and under 26s, have additional priority booking and discount options, but no discounts apply to Friday or Saturday performances.

When is the best time to book tickets?

Booking early, especially for discounted midweek shows, gives you the best choice of seats in the cheaper price bands before they sell out. If you want to use under 26 or group discounts, it is worth organising your plans as soon as possible so you can still access the promotional prices for the Tuesday to Thursday performances.

What is the running schedule for performances in Nottingham?

During the week of 3 to 7 November 2026, evening performances are scheduled at 7:30pm from Tuesday to Saturday. There is also a Thursday matinee at 2:00pm and a Saturday matinee at 2:30pm, which are useful options if you prefer daytime theatre or are travelling into Nottingham for the day.

Do I need to have seen the Mean Girls film to enjoy the musical?

You do not need to have seen the film, because the musical clearly introduces Cady, Regina, the Plastics, and the high school world and tells a complete story on stage. Fans of the movie will enjoy recognising iconic lines and moments, while newcomers can easily follow the plot and enjoy the humour, choreography, and songs without any prior knowledge.

What should I expect from the music and staging?

The show features a modern pop-rock score, energetic choreography, and fast-paced staging that bring North Shore High and its teenage drama to life. Expect colourful sets, sharp comedy, and heartfelt scenes that explore bullying, friendship, self-image, and the importance of accepting yourself and others, created by an award-winning team including Tina Fey, Jeff Richmond, Nell Benjamin, and Casey Nicholaw.
