The darkly delicious story of Veronica Sawyer
Music, lyrics and book by Laurence O'Keefe and Kevin Murphy
Based on the 1989 film of the same name written by Daniel Waters
A dark comedy and rock musical based on the 1988 cult classic film, Heathers. The story follows Veronica Sawyer, a high school student who becomes friends with the popular but ruthless group of girls, all named Heather. As Veronica begins to question the group's cruel behavior, she meets and falls in love with a mysterious new student named J.D.
Together, Veronica and J.D. take revenge on the school's social hierarchy, leading to a series of tragic events. The musical explores themes of teenage angst, high school politics, and the consequences of seeking revenge.
The show features a score of catchy and satirical songs, including "Beautiful," "Dead Girl Walking," and "Seventeen," as well as the iconic "Heathers" chant. With a mix of humor and darkness, Heathers: The Musical ultimately delves into the dangers of conformity, popularity, and the desire for revenge.
Although the show is a high-energy black comedy, it opens conversations about dark issues, including bullying, teen suicide, sexual assault, and school violence.
