OFF-BROADWAY
MUSICAL
COMEDY
SYNOPSIS: With a new school year comes a new beginning for the Tigers, the worst-ranked high school cheerleading team in the state. Riley, the new captain, rallies the girls for a fresh start at the annual team sleepover, however, the night takes a bloody turn.
A squad that can’t stick a landing now has to solve a murder if they want any hope of making it to regionals – or the morning. Featuring an infectious pop rock score and razor-sharp wit, this brand new musical proves the highs and lows of being a teen girl in high school are more extreme than they seem.

Seems pretty intense but it’s actually quite funny and lots of fun! The music is absolutely contagious. On the night I attended, I could hear people singing along at some points and then singing or humming the tunes after, on their way out.
The story is very Cruel Intentions/John Tucker Must Die meets Bring it On. Each character is endearing in their own way, quirky, and again, very funny. The actors are all such talented singers that the songs and melodies do stay with you for sure. There are some twists to the plot that make it unpredictable, plus the added humor to the songs even during a dark moment ensure you will be laughing all the way through.

We Are the Tigers is playing at Theatre 80, 80 St Mark’s Place, which means there are plenty of NYC hot spots to grab a bite to eat and/or a drink before or after. Also, you may want to hit the club to do some dancing after….. Since it’s Off Broadway, a couple of tickets to a delightful evening won’t break your bank either. So, if you’re looking for something to do on a weeknight after work or a Friday or Saturday, or if you need a great date night idea; I think this one is a good bet!
Go ahead, give it a shot and I’m sure you’ll be cheering for The Tigers as well. Here’s a video of a rehearsal to give you a little taste of what I am talking about:
Great post 😁
