‘Heathers’ in Saugus
The Theatre Company of Saugus will present the North Shore premiere of “Heathers The Musical” starting Friday. The dark comedy about surviving the horrors of high school arrives just in time for Halloween.
In “Heathers,” based on the 1989 film, Westerberg High is ruled by a shoulder-padded, scrunchie-wearing junta: Heather, Heather and Heather, the hottest and cruelest girls in all of Ohio. But misfit Veronica Sawyer rejects their evil regime for a new boyfriend, the dark and sexy stranger J.D., who plans to put the Heathers in their place — six feet under.
Performances are scheduled for Fridays and Saturdays, Oct. 21, 22, 28 and 29, starting at 8 p.m., with Sunday matinees on Oct. 23 and 30 starting at 2. TCS will present “Heathers” at a new venue, the American Legion Hall, 44 Taylor St., Saugus. The hall has a cash bar with beverages and refreshments available.
Tickets are $25 for adults and $22 for seniors and students. To purchase or reserve tickets, for directions to the venue or for more information about the show, please visit the Theatre Company of Saugus website at tcsaugus.org or call 781-816-7019.
