Heathers The Musical Milton Keynes Theatre Follo

Heathers The Musical

Milton Keynes Theatre

Following a smash hit in London’s West End, two record-breaking national tours and sell out runs at London’s The Other Palace, the WhatsOnStage ‘BEST NEW MUSICAL’ winner, Heathers the Musical is coming to Milton Keynes Theatre.

This high octane, black comedy, rock musical based on one of the greatest cult teen films of all-time that starred Winona Ryder and Christian Slater, is back with a bang!

Welcome to Westerberg High, where popularity is so very 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 turns up, the mysterious teen rebel who teaches her that it might kill to be a nobody, but its murder being a somebody.

Laurence O’Keefe and Kevin Murphy’s hit musical adaptation has enjoyed successful runs in Los Angeles and New York, and its European premiere became the highest grossing show at The Other Palace, having sold over 20,000 tickets across the run and selling out prior to its opening gala performance.

This production contains haze, loud noises including gunshots, flashing lights and strobe, strong language and mature themes including murder, suicide, sexual violence and references to eating disorders. Audience discretion is advised.

MK Museum: 1940s Weekend

1940s Weekend at MK Museum: Step Back in Time!

Dates: 7th & 8th September
Time: 10:30 AM – 4:30 PM
Location: MK Museum

Pack up your kit bag and gather your family and friends for a nostalgic journey back to the 1940s, an era shaped by World War II. MK Museum invites you to experience history come alive during our 1940s Weekend!

Live Re-enactors
Get ready to meet and interact with live re-enactors from The Oxfordshire Home Guard and the Hertfordshire Home Guard, who will be preserving and promoting the memory of those who volunteered during the war. They’ll be on hand to share stories, answer your questions, and bring history to life.

You’ll also see the RAF Bomber Command, GI 44-45, and the dedicated women of the American Red Cross in action. And don’t miss Sunday’s special treat – a lively Dad’s Army reenactment featuring Captain Mainwaring and his platoon!

Song and Dance
Get into the swing of things with a good old sing-song and dance along with Museum favorite Lola Lamour, supported by Mick Wilson’s Skylark Music. Show off your Lindy Hop or Jitterbug skills, or if you prefer something a bit more laid-back, simply pull up a chair and enjoy a hot brew served by one of the Nippy waitresses while you watch the dancers in action.

Explore the Grounds
The fun continues outside in the Museum grounds where vintage singer and entertainer Johnny Victory will dazzle at the Band Stand. Browse vintage clothing, accessories, and bric-a-brac from our traders, and take in the fascinating “Railways at War” display in the Field Study Centre.

Don’t forget to explore the bustling Street of Shops, where store keepers will give you a glimpse into 1940s shopping. Pick up your ration book, exchange your new pennies for old ones, and indulge in some sweets at the Old Post Office!

Family Fun
There’s plenty for the kids too! They can get creative with arts and crafts activities, and embark on an exciting hunt to find the spy hiding in the Museum grounds.

Pay once, and enjoy free visits to the Museum for the rest of the year!
