‘Deliciously dark’ Heathers the Musical comes to Nottingham

The award-winning smash-hit musical Heathers brings high-school drama and laughter to Nottingham next year.

It’s set in Westerberg High, where popularity is a matter of life and death, and a girl named Veronica Sawyer is just another of the “nobodies” dreaming of better times.

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 turns up, the mysterious teen rebel who teaches her that "it might kill to be a nobody, but it’s murder being a somebody”.
