We ventured back to Off Broadway to check out what all the hype is surrounding Heathers the Musical. While I've seen the movie at least twice, both Aaron and Jaime had never seen it. I had forgotten it was all about teenage suicide and a toxic relationship.
The show was refreshing and great. I had a wonderful time, laughing at all the iconic lines. The audience was definitely a cult movie group, wooting the actors. The girl playing Veronica became a little flat for me towards the end because she cried throughout the entire show rather than having another emotion. BUT I was happy to see a great new Asian role for me; Heather Duke. None of us particularly liked the actress as she overacted everything. The guy playing JD was HOT HOT HOT! And even hotter up close when people could take pictures with him. This musical has some great numbers, like Candy Store and Blue. I laughed very hard. Also, the guy playing Ram is from SLO apparently! Go Central Coast!
We had great seats (row E off to the side). Since it's off broadway, every seat is good. Nothing was partial view and the actresses could practically spit on us. We could see all emotion! I'd recommend it to people who love the movie or those who want a good laugh and to see the original Mean Girls!
