Here’s one of a few shows where you can laugh, cry and feel like a baddie within a couple hours.

After releasing her single “Leave Me Alone” in May, Reneé Rapp is celebrating a new album Bite Me (due Aug. 1) at USF’s Yuengling Center this fall.

The previous MTV and VMA nominee for “Best New Artist” and “PUSH Performance of the Year,” had her breakout role as Regina George in the Broadway production of “Mean Girls” six summers ago. Following her success as Playbill’s queen of the plastics, the 25-year-old took her talents to theaters in the 2024 “Mean Girls” movie.

Aside from commanding performances and her unbothered persona, Rapp has partnered with two nonprofits for this tour—Save the Children which provides education and protection to kids in the U.S. and REVERB which focuses on sustainability in the music industry.

Rapp went viral on TikTok for a video of her belting Drew Gasparini’s song “What Remains” with her leg stretched above her head— talk about having a leg up.

The gay icon’s mix of soul-crushing, should-I-crash-this-car songs like “In the Kitchen” and “Snow Angel” along with her edgy upbeat songs like “Not My Fault” and “Too Well” should make for an entertaining show.

Get a leg up on presales on Friday, June 27.
