NORTH EAST, MD — The Milburn Stone Theatre at Cecil College is thrilled to announce the upcoming production of Cruel Intentions: The ’90s Musical, running June 12–21, 2025. This edgy, electrifying stage adaptation of the cult-classic film brings scandal, seduction, and ’90s nostalgia to the Milburn Stone stage — and promises to be one of the most talked-about productions of the season.
Based on the beloved film and featuring a book by Roger Kumble, Lindsey Rosin, and Jordan Ross, Cruel Intentions: The ’90s Musical follows step-siblings Sebastian and Kathryn as they scheme, manipulate, and seduce their way through Manhattan’s elite — until real emotions threaten to unravel it all. Set to an unforgettable jukebox soundtrack featuring Britney Spears, R.E.M., The Verve, Garbage, Placebo, Marcy’s Playground, and more, this production is packed with drama, passion, and dark humor that will keep audiences on the edge of their seats.
Recommended for ages 16+ for mature themes and content.
“If you’re a ’90s kid like myself, you’ll love Cruel Intentions,” said MST Artistic Director Andrew John Mitchell. “It’s the story you know and love, filled with an incredible soundtrack full of songs from the decade.
