Description

Before being released on physical media, the film will premiere this March in cinemas across the UK and Ireland, making it the first time the live capture will be available in the UK since its streaming debut last year in the US and Canada.

For the uninitiated, the plot follows a dysfunctional high school, Westerburg, where social angst and teenage intransigence rule the day. Think Olivia Rodrigo but with the sourness dialled up to 17. At the eye of the social sh*t-storm are the Heathers – three masochistic girls who have the school’s eco-system tied around their perfectly manicured fingers. That is, until the idealistic outcast Veronica (“This could be beautiful”, she wishfully ruminates as she watches her classmates in the opening number) starts amassing something of a bodycount through a series of unexpected hijinks and a forbidden romance with a local fan of fulmination . Launched in 2008, Kaleidoscope is a global independent all-rights entertainment distributor with theatrical, digital, physical, and international distribution operations. The company's catalog contains more than 1,750 feature films. The film is often seen as a result of social dysfunction and a desire by young people at the time to be heard.KURT’S DAD - Straight-laced, very conservative, also former football player. A simple guy, not book smart, you’d be happy to share a beer with him. Heathers: The Musical” tells the story of high school nobody Veronica Sawyer, whose dreams of popularity start to come true when she is taken under the wings of three beautiful and impossibly cruel Heathers, until mysterious rebel J.D. shows her the deadly consequences of being somebody. The production is based on characters from the 1988 cult classic film, “Heathers,” which is now part of the IP library of Village Roadshow Entertainment Group’s parent company Vine Alternative Investments. Heatherswas filmed last year at its London home, starring some of its original 2021 off-West End cast, including Ailsa Davidson as Veronica Sawyer. Following the successful Heathers UK tour, Simon Gordon and Maddison Firth joined the London cast and appeared in the filming. KURT’S DAD: Straight-laced, very conservative, also former football player. A simple guy, not book smart, you’d be happy to share a beer with him.

Heathers The Musical is closely based on the 80s film of similar name, starring Winona Ryder as Veronica Sawyer and the era’s heartthrob Christian Slater as JD. First unveiled in 1988, with a mainstream release the following year, the film also stars Shannen Doherty as Heather Duke. Doherty would go on to appear as Brenda Walsh in the hugely popular 90s TV series Beverly Hills and turn of the century favourite Charmed. Cornnuts, you've been waiting for this one!

NOTE: In certain choral songs Chandler can switch parts with her other Heathers as needed.GIRL 1: NEW WAVE GIRL – (16-18) She wants her MTV and dresses accordingly. Voice: belt to at least C# (a soprano up to high A/B is also a plus). Greetings, salutations.

Voice: Great belt up to C, higher always welcome. I think one of the most disappointing things about the DVD is that there are no subtitles. I personally do not need subtitles but when my friend wanted to turn them on she discovered there was none. This is such a shame as it leaves it inaccessible for those who need subtitles to be able to watch. Variety reports that each screening will be followed by a bonus 10-minute special, "Behind the Scenes at The Other Palace," which features a look behind the musical being filmed that the London venue for its original 2022 release on The Roku Channel.
