Heathers the Musical to embark on a UK tour next summer

Heathers the Musical will be hitting the road again when it returns to the UK from Summer 2026, and that replica productions are set to play Australia, New Zealand, and tour across the United States.

Based on the iconic 1989 cult film starring Winona Ryder and Christian Slater, Heathers first premiered in Los Angeles in 2013 to sold-out audiences before transferring to New York’s New World Stages in 2014. The show was reimagined for its 2018 London debut, featuring new songs and updated script elements that are now being showcased in the current New York production.

Full tour dates are to be announced soon. Meanwhile, the show will also make its way to Australia and New Zealand starting April 2026, with stops in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Gold Coast, Canberra, Perth, Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch.

Looking ahead, Heathers the Musical will embark on a year-long tour across the United States beginning Spring 2027. Full details and dates will be announced in the coming months.

“What a year it’s been for Heathers the Musical.” says director Andy Fickman. “We brought our award-winning production back to New World Stages in New York and today we announced that the production will be going to Australia and New Zealand next year. I’m even more excited that we’ll be bringing the show back home to the UK for audiences new and old to experience this twistedly heartfelt story again. So, get out your scrunchies and break out the Corn Nuts and join us at Westerberg High for Big Fun next year!”

Greetings and salutations! Welcome to Westerberg High, where popularity is a matter of life and death, and Veronica Sawyer is just another of the nobodies dreaming of a better day.

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, the mysterious teen rebel, turns up and teaches her that it might kill to be a nobody, but its murder being a somebody.
