Heathers: The Musical is a dark comedy based on the cult classic 1988 film of the same name. The musical follows Veronica Sawyer, a teenage girl in high school who is tired of being a part of the popular crowd ruled by the three Heathers. She meets a new student, J.D., who has a darker take on social politics and takes her on a whirlwind journey of destruction and murder. The show tackles themes of bullying, teen suicide, and violence in a satirical, tongue-in-cheek manner, with high-energy musical numbers and witty dialogue. However, it ultimately conveys a message about the dangers of conformity and the importance of individuality. The musical features catchy songs such as "Candy Store," "Dead Girl Walking," and "Seventeen."
