"Mean Girls," the smash-hit Broadway musical based on Tina Fey's iconic film, takes audiences on a journey through the hilariously relatable world of high school drama. The tour follows Cady Heron, a naive new girl who moves from Africa to the American suburbs, as she navigates friendships, cliques, and the perils of fitting in at North Shore High.

Live Mix

Here’s a short video of me mixing “Fearless.” “Fearless” is the Act 1 finale — it comes together quickly but presented some tricky spots that were hard to balance. (Recorded with iPhone mic Sorry!)
