Production photos released for HEATHERS THE MUSICAL

Based the cult classic 1989 film starring Winona Ryder and Christian Slater, Heathers takes place at Westerberg High, where popularity is a matter of life and death, and Veronica Sawyer is just another nobody.  But when she’s unexpectedly taken under the wings of the three beautiful and impossibly cruel Heathers, her dreams of popularity finally start to come true. That is until JD, the mysterious teen rebel, turns up and teaches her that it might kill to be a nobody, but its murder being a somebody.

With a book, music, and lyrics by Kevin Murphy and Laurence O'Keefe, Heathers is directed by acclaimed American screen and stage director Andy Fickman, featuring choreography by Gary Lloyd, design by David Shields, lighting by Ben Cracknell, sound by Dan Samson, and musical supervision by Jeremy Wootton and Will Joy.
