About City Springs Theatre Company and Mean Girls

City Springs Theatre Company is one of the premier professional theater organizations in the Southeast, based at the stunning City Springs complex in Sandy Springs — a dynamic arts and civic hub that has become a cultural anchor for Atlanta's northern suburbs. Since its founding, City Springs Theatre Company has built a reputation for mounting polished, emotionally resonant productions that rival anything audiences find on a major regional theater stage. Their productions consistently draw theatergoers from across metro Atlanta, from Buckhead to Brookhaven, Alpharetta to Decatur.

Mean Girls the musical is adapted directly by Tina Fey from her beloved 2004 film screenplay, with music by Jeff Richmond and lyrics by Nell Benjamin. The stage version expands the world of North Shore High School with sharp, witty dialogue, infectious pop-driven songs, and a story that cuts deeper than its comedic surface suggests. It's a show about identity, belonging, and the brutal social hierarchies of adolescence — told with humor, heart, and genuine theatrical craftsmanship. The Broadway production earned 12 Tony Award nominations, and the musical has since become a staple of professional regional theater across the country.

City Springs Theatre Company's production of Mean Girls at Byers Theatre places this culturally significant show in front of an Atlanta audience that appreciates both the nostalgia of the original film and the elevated artistry of live musical theater.
