It has been announced that Laurence O’Keefe and Kevin Murphy’s stage adaptation of the film will both be heading back to the West End and embarking on a UK tour this summer.

Westerberg High’s Veronica Sawyer is just another nobody dreaming of a better day. But when she joins the beautiful and impossibly cruel Heathers, her dreams of popularity may finally come true.
