Based on the 1989 cult classic film, HEATHERS THE MUSICAL is the darkly delicious story of Veronica Sawyer, a brainy beautiful teenage misfit who hustle her way into the most powerful and ruthless clique, the shoulder-padded, scrunchie-wearing junta: Heather, Heather and Heather, the hottest and cruelest girls in all of Ohio. Veronica rejects their evil regime for a new boyfriend, the dark and dangerously sexy new kid J.D., who plans to put the Heathers in their place-six feet under. While it is a high-energy black comedy, the show opens conversations about dark issues, including bullying, teen suicide, sexual assault, and violence in schools. Hilarious, heartfelt, and homicidal. Are you in or are you out?
