School Girls; Or, The African Mean Girls Play is a sharp, acclaimed comedy-drama written by Jocelyn Bioh.
Plot and Setting
- Setting: The Aburi Girls’ Senior High School in Eastern Ghana, in 1986.
- Premise: Paulina is the reigning “queen bee” of the boarding school, and she has her eyes set on winning the local Miss Ghana pageant (a stepping stone to Miss Universe).
- The Conflict: Paulina’s social dominance and plans are thrown into chaos with the arrival of Ericka, a talented, charismatic new transfer student from America who also happens to catch the eye of the pageant recruiter, Eloise.
- Core Themes: The play humorously yet painfully explores colorism, anti-Black beauty standards, westernization, classism, and the complex realities of teenage girlhood across the African diaspora.
