A musical that follows Veronica Sawyer through the dangerous world of the Heathers clique.
For a quick sense of the show, listen to "Our Love Is God" or "Seventeen (Reprise)." They frame the tensions between fitting in and standing out pretty well.
Heathers The Musical takes the dark comedy of the 1988 film and turns it into a soundtrack that drives the story with songs like "Meant To Be Yours" and "Freeze Your Brain." It's drawn attention for handling tough themes like teen suicide honestly, which the creators have said was their aim. Over the years, performers like Barrett Wilbert Weed and Ryan McCartan have brought the leads to life in various productions.
The show debuted as a stage adaptation with music by Laurence O'Keefe and book and lyrics by Kevin Murphy. It has been staged in different productions since, building a following through its soundtrack and sharp character work.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
