Set at Westerberg High, Heathers the Musical follows Veronica Sawyer, a social outsider whose fortunes shift when she is taken in by the Heathers, three beautiful and ruthless girls who control the school's social hierarchy. As Veronica begins to climb toward the popularity she has always wanted, her involvement with J.D., a charismatic and dangerous rebel, draws her into a series of events that spiral far beyond the cruelties of high school social life.

Based on the 1988 film starring Winona Ryder and Christian Slater, the musical adaptation translates the story's dark satirical tone into a stage production combining comedy, menace, and an original score. Following runs in London, New York, and Melbourne, the production returns to London for a limited engagement of 52 performances.
