(VINELAND, NJ) -- There's just one weekend of performances left for Heathers the Musical at The Landis Theater in Vineland. Based on the 80’s cult classic film starring Winona Ryder and Christian Slater, “Heathers,” the musical deals with the dark side of high school. The remaining performances take place on Friday, August 20th at 8:00pm, Saturday, August 21st at 3:00pm & 8:00pm.
It’s 1989 and Veronica Sawyer is a brainy, beautiful misfit that wants nothing more than to be a part of the powerful, popular clique that rules Westerberg High School, the Heathers: Heather Chandler, Heather MacNamara, and Heather Duke. However, when she finds out what it’s really like to be a Heather, Veronica is confronted by the scary, cruel truth and is forced into a battle between right and wrong.
This dark comedy is nothing short of exhilarating, hilarious, eye-opening, and almost too relatable. We were all someone in high school, who were you? A Heather? A Beleaguered Geek? A Hipster Dork? A Preppy Stud? A Stoner? A New Wave Girl? Or The Dark & Mysterious New Kid in town? Heathers the Musical has something to say about everyone in the high school hierarchy.
Heathers the Musical was written by Laurence O'Keefe and Kevin Murphy and based on the 1989 film Heathers by Daniel Waters.
