Yeah the producers must have been on crack when they set these prices. I'd expect they'll want to suck every dollar they can from the tween fangurlcore base (on Mommy and Daddy's credit card), and then the prices will eventually become more reasonable"

I want some of their crack, then, as this seems to be genuinely selling. I assumed this would completely crash and burn as it did the last time, but their base seems to be turning out. I can't recall a show at NWS selling this well ahead of time. I still don't think this will thrive for long, but itsprovingmy assumptions wrong so far."



We also don't know if they are just releasing tickets in small blocks spread out to create the illusion of high demand. The analytics people can be genius in how they manage the dynamics of pricing.

Kerry Butler, Ben Davis, Cameron Loyal, Erin Morton, Xavier McKinnon, Cade Ostermeyer, Sara Al-Bazali, and more round out the cast

Kerry!!! This may be short lived or horrible or whatever other choice words people want to throw in the orbit of this project but what fantastic casting. Excited to turn off my brain and let this show wash over me.

And yet, she’ll still get to sing more in this than she did in MEAN GIRLS.

It's a job and she's a working actor.

What is the deal with rush / lottery?


This article has zero information about how to actually go about procuring tickets LOL

Haven't seen the show yet but I did just find this link. It gives the information in the second paragraph. Rush/lottery is through rush.telecharge.com. https://playbill.com/article/how-to-get-38-rush-lottery-tickets-to-heathers-off-broadway

Hearing the reactions of people in the audience who don't know what's coming was the best part of the student production I saw last winter.

This sounds horrendous.

Usually those types only occupy the first couple of previews of a show (I remember the reports out of early SWEENEY previews), guess this show isn't as lucky...

Any other reports on the production?

This has been extended to January 25. Bit of a surprise, given most of its target audience heads back to school mid-late August, but I guess they want to hold on and rake in some big-time $$$ for the holidays?

HEATHERS is playing at Stage One, while …SPELLING BEE will take Stage Three at New World Stages.

Their opening night gala is today, and reviews drop on July 10.

This isn't a production-specific question, but does New World Stages do bag checks? I'm picking up a bottle of wine in Manhattan that's a gift for a friend next week, and I'll have to keep it with me during the performance of HEATHERS that I'm seeing. I don't live in the city, so I won't have the chance to leave it somewhere.

Looks like the show is rolling out new key art:

The cartoon look is an awesome change of pace, but it's a bit grainy. I don't think their artwork has been this heavily revised since the 2018 Other Palace iteration.
