Heathers: The Musical Launches National Tour in Baltimore

Get ready for some "very" big fun as Heathers: The Musical makes its highly anticipated North American Tour launch at Baltimore's Hippodrome Theatre at the France-Merrick PAC from May 15-22, 2027. Following smash-hit runs in London and New York, this WhatsOnStage "Best New Musical" winner brings its darkly comedic tale to audiences across the country, starting right here in Charm City.

Based on the 1989 cult classic film starring Winona Ryder and Christian Slater, Heathers: The Musical transforms the beloved teen dark comedy into an outrageous, irrepressible theatrical experience. With book, music, and lyrics by Kevin Murphy and Laurence O'Keefe, this production has broken box office records with over 200 productions worldwide.

Welcome to Westerberg High

Step into Westerberg High School, where popularity is a matter of life and death. Meet Veronica Sawyer, just another nobody dreaming of a better day—until she's unexpectedly taken under the wings of three beautiful and impossibly cruel Heathers. Her dreams of popularity finally start to come true, but when J.D., the mysterious teen rebel, enters the picture, Veronica learns that it might kill to be a nobody, but it's murder being a somebody.

The New York Times praised the show as having "outrageous humor" and called it "an irrepressible musical," while the New York Sun described it as "mischievous fun." This is musical theater that doesn't play it safe—it's dark, funny, and completely unforgettable.
