MIDDLE MUSQUODOBOIT: Tia Abdel Massih said it best.

While she wanted a role that was smaller in this year’s musical, getting the role of Cady Heron.

“I definitely wanted a smaller part, because I am a senior in high school and I have a lot of courses,” said Massih. “Now that I am Cady and we’ve been rehearsing for so long and the show is next week, I wouldn’t want to be anyone else right now.”

Abdel Massih is one of the 50 students from schools within the Musquodoboit Valley Family of Schools who will be participating in the performance of Mean Girls Jr. next week.
