No, sorry: Troy Bolton isn’t coming to Iowa. But two other “high school musicals” are touring through Iowa in the next few weeks. The national tour of “Mean Girls” bullies its way across the state with stops in Iowa City (March 7-9), Sioux City (March 11), Cedar Rapids (March 12) and Davenport (March 13). The actresses who play Cady Heron and Regina George (Katie Yeomans and Maya Petropoulos, respectively) are making their national tour debuts.

Of course, if those girls scare you off, catch “Dear Evan Hansen” March 8 and 9 in Cedar Falls. If you’re a fan, you will be found — at the Gallagher Bluedorn Performing Arts Center.
