“Luther” star Idris Elba has joined the team at the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre as an associate producer for the U.K. production of “School Girls; Or, The African Mean Girls Play…
The play is set in Ghana’s prestigious Aburi Girls Boarding School in 1986, and follows Queen Bee Paulina and her crew as they await the arrival of the Miss Ghana pageant recruiter. It’s clear that Paulina is in top position to take the title until her place is threatened by Ericka – a beautiful and talented new transfer student.
The play originally opened at MCC Theater to critical acclaim and has had nearly 60 productions across the U.S. The U.K. premiere, directed by Monique Touko, winner of the 2022 Stage Debut Award for Best Director, will open at the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre on June 14 June. Bioh added: “To be able to now say that I’m working with Idris Elba – a shining beacon of West African representation in the entertainment industry – is truly stunning. Words can’t even begin to describe what his support as a producer on ‘School Girls…’ means to me. It is a possibility I never could have imagined. Together, we endeavor to make Ghana proud.”
