🐯 Get Ready to Laugh, Cheer, and Scream —We Are the Tigers is Taking the Stage for its Australian Premiere! 🐯

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.

With a pop-driven, belty score and a seriously silly book, We Are the Tigers will have audiences cheering for the whole team as the girls learn to cheer for themselves. An absolute must-see for anyone who loves musicals like Heathers, Mean Girls or Bring It On!
