This fall, the White Plains Performing Arts Center is offering an opportunity to show our students that there is more to theatre than just Broadway. Regional theatres, like the WPPAC make up a huge part of the professional performing arts industry. This October, WPPAC is producing the NY Regional Premiere of HEATHERS: THE MUSICAL and we wanted to spread the word as we know the show has been a favorite amongst the teens in our programs for a few years. This is the first professional production in NY since it has closed off Broadway and it is right in your backyard!
In recent years, theatre has seen a resurgence of musicals that align with some of the ideals of third wave feminism; HEATHERS by Laurence O'Keefe and Kevin Murphy is one of those musicals. I love this show for many reasons; the catchy music, not to mention the hilarious book-but what I love most about this show is its progressive representation of femininity and sexuality. In an era where Donald Trump is the Republican candidate, this show is extremely important.

Opening the 10th Anniversary Season is a play from one of the company's favorite playwrights, Bruce Graham (The Outgoing Tide-2013; Mr. Hart & Mr. Brown-2014). This piece, inspired by his parent's own love story, is a romantic comedy that proposes that a second chance at love is still possible, even for two people with a lot of miles on them. You'll be laughing hysterically one minute, and grabbing your heart the next, in this gem of a play.
