Did you know that all Northeast State alumni get free tickets to Northeast State Theatre Department productions?! This is no April Fool's joke, use code 'Alumni26' when you order tickets for Alumni Night at the Theatre, Friday, April 17th, at www.thenortheaststate.com/heathers.

This Drama Desk Award nominated musical is the delicious dark story of Veronica Sawyer, a brainy, beautiful teenage misfit who hustles her way into the most powerful and ruthless clique at Westerberg High: the Heathers. Heathers is a hilarious, heartfelt, and homicidal musical based on one of the greatest teen comedies of all time. It is a moving love story, laugh-out-loud comedy, and unflinching look at the joys and anguish of high school.

Heathers: The Musical contains strong language and mature themes including murder, su***de, sexual violence and references to eating disorders. Audience discretion is advised.

Book, Music and Lyrics by Kevin Murphy and Laurence O’Keefe
Based on the film written by Daniel Waters
