HEATHERS is based on the 1988 cult classic film, the musical follows Westerburg High School senior Veronica Sawyer through her tumultuous adventures and battles with the original "mean girls", The Heathers. The story features everything that makes a high school musical memorable: Teen romance, sexy cheerleaders, handsome jocks, cliques, bullying and, yes, murder. HEATHERS features a book, score and lyrics by the award-winning creative team of Laurence O'Keefe (Legally Blonde, Bat Boy) & Kevin Murphy (Reefer Madness, "Desperate Housewives). The hilarious, heartfelt and homicidal new musical won over audiences and critics in Los Angeles playing to sold out houses, and then moved to New York, where it made its official premiere in 2014.
THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW is a live stage production of arguably the most popular B-film of all-time. Premiering in the UK in 1973, THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW with book, lyrics and score by Richard O'Brien, has played to millions of audience members at theatres around the world. All your favorite characters from the film will be reprising their iconic songs: Dr. Frank-n-Furter (Sweet Transvestite), the lovers Brad & Janet (Dammit, Janet!), the walking dead Eddie and his sweet tap-dancing Columbia (What Ever Happened to Saturday Night/Hot Patootie), and the space travelling siblings Riff Raff & Magenta (The Time Warp). Audience participation is welcome and strongly encouraged.
