Disney Channel's smash hit musical comes to life in Disney’s High School Musical JR. on stage! This workshop version of the popular musical has been specially adapted for young performers-abridged to 45-60 minutes, with music appropriate for young voices. In this loose, modern retelling of Romeo and Juliet (with a much happier ending), basketball team captain Troy falls for the brainy Gabriella. Both have musical talent and want to try out for the school musical, but their respective groups of friends are not happy. Chad and the rest of the Jocks want Troy for the big game and the Taylor and the rest of the Brainiacs want Gabriella for the science decathlon. When drama diva Sharpay, her brother Ryan and the rest of the Thespians get involved, everyone is out to make sure Troy and Gabriella stay off the stage. With jazzy, contemporary pop songs like Start of Something New, What I’ve Been Looking For, Breaking Free and We’re All In This Together, this hip, new musical will have you dancing in the aisles.

Heathers The Musical (Teen Edition) is the darkly delicious story of Veronica Sawyer, a brainy, beautiful teenage misfit who hustles her way into the most powerful and ruthless clique at Westerberg High: the Heathers. But before she can get comfortable atop the high school food chain, Veronica falls in love with the dangerously handsome new kid J.D. When Heather Chandler, the Almighty, kicks her out of the group, Veronica decides to bite the bullet and kiss Heather’s aerobicized butt... but J.D. has another plan for that bullet. Brought to you by the award-winning creative team of Kevin Murphy (Reefer Madness, Desperate Housewives), Laurence O’Keefe (Bat Boy, Legally Blonde) and director Andy Fickman (Reefer Madness, She’s the Man), Heathers The Musical (Teen Edition) is a hilarious, heartfelt and homicidal show based one of the greatest teen comedies of all time (the film was ranked number 5 on the Entertainment Weekly list of the "50 Best High School Movies”).
** Parents should note that Heathers contains VERY mature, and sometimes difficult, content (strong PG-13). Note also that this is the Teen edition of the script which has significant changes – removal of curse words and some other R rated content. This said, this is a darkly comic satire that includes difficult themes like gun violence and teen suicide. We encourage parents to familiarize themselves with the story before signing their children up for this production.

Inspired by a true story and featuring the Tony-nominated score by Steve Martin and Edie Brickell, Broadway’s Bright Star tells a sweeping tale of love and redemption set against the rich backdrop of the American South in the 1920s and ’40s. When literary editor Alice Murphy meets a young soldier just home from World War II, he awakens her longing for the child she once lost. Haunted by their unique connection, Alice sets out on a journey to understand her past—and what she finds has the power to transform both of their lives. With beautiful melodies and powerfully moving characters, the story unfolds as a rich tapestry of deep emotion. An uplifting theatrical journey that holds you tightly in its grasp, Bright Star is as refreshingly genuine as it is daringly hopeful.
