About Heathers The Musical
Heathers: The Musical on Broadway
Welcome to Westerberg High, where popularity is a matter of life and death and Veronica Sawyer is just another nobody dreaming of a better day. When she is unexpectedly taken under the wing of the three beautiful and impossibly cruel Heathers, her dreams of popularity start to come true, until the mysterious teen rebel JD arrives and teaches her that it might kill to be a nobody, but it is murder being a somebody.
A high-octane black-comedy rock musical based on one of the great cult films, Heathers arrives in New York after smash-hit runs in London's West End, where it won the WhatsOnStage Award for Best New Musical. It plays at New World Stages with razor-sharp satire of high-school hierarchy and identity.
What to Expect
Expect a fast, funny and deliberately dark rock musical with a strong score and biting humour, staged in the intimate New World Stages complex.
Content and Special Effects
Please note: Heathers contains strong language and themes including eating disorders, violence, suicide and sexual violence. Special effects include haze, loud noises including gunshots, flashing lights and strobe lighting.
