S10 Ep17: Charlie Burn, Cady in Mean Girls


Listen Later

Charlie Burn is starring as Cady Heron in the West End production of Mean Girls.


Having premiered on Broadway in 2018, Mean Girls opened in London last year. Tina Fey adapted the show from her 2004 film, collaborating with Jeff Richmond who composed the music and Nell Benjamin who wrote the lyrics. The show is directed and choreographed by Casey Nicholaw. 


Charlie’s other theatre credits include playing Cosette in Les Misérables on tour and in the West End as well as touring arenas in Disney 100: The Concert.


Recorded backstage at the Savoy Theatre, in this episode Charlie discusses her whirlwind ride with Mean Girls and what makes Cady such a challenging role to play and sing. She also talks about her path into theatre, how she reflects on her Les Mis era and lots more.


Mean Girls runs at the Savoy Theatre until 8th June 2025. Visit www.london.meangirlsmusical.com for info and tickets.
