Broadway Kids Jam Releases A 'Candy Store' Jam From HEATHERS THE MUSICAL

Broadway Kids Jam has released their latest jam, "Candy Store" from the Off Broadway and soon to be West End musical, Heathers. The "Candy Store" jam features Joshua Turchin (The Pill, TrevorLIVE LA, A Christmas Story the Musical), Molly Richardson (Matilda), Mckayla Twiggs (Anastasia, Les Miserables, Once), and Sami Bray (1984, How the Grinch Stole Christmas).

Broadway Kids Jam's Molly Richardson was so excited for this jam following the success of their Mean Girls Jam. "I recently started listening to the Heathers soundtrack and I knew we had to do a jam. It was a perfect follow-up to our Mean Girls jam, because it explores some of the same themes."

Broadway Kids Jam founder and music director Joshua Turchin loves the music from the show, but realized he would need to make a cut to keep the material appropriate for all ages of their viewers, listeners and jammers. Turchin says, "Candy Store is so much fun to play and perform, and it's really catchy. I wanted to make sure that everyone could listen to it without worrying about the more adult language and themes." Turchin added, "We are all a little too young to be in the show now, but maybe by the time it comes to Broadway, we will all be just right for it!"

The "Candy Store" jam is available to watch:
