Mystic Pizza: The Musical is here, and it’s bringing all the charm, drama, and unforgettable moments from the beloved 1988 film to the stage!  This musical adaptation, filled with catchy tunes and heartfelt stories, follows the journey of three young women in the seaside town of Mystic, Connecticut, as they navigate love, friendship, and dreams of something more.

And if you thought it couldn’t get any more fun, you’re in for a treat—“Girls Just Want to Have Fun” is part of the show’s sparkling soundtrack!  The iconic anthem, originally made famous by Cyndi Lauper, brings the energy and spirit of the show to life.
