If you want female empowerment, dazzling costumes and banging tunes then you’ve definitely come to the right musical!

Heathers The Musical: Review, Stockton Globe
Dear Diary… Heathers the Musical has been a show that I’ve wanted to see for so long and I’m so glad I finally got to see it on opening night in Stockton!
I took a trip to Westerberg High, via Stockton Globe, for the darkly hilarious musical and, let me tell you, it certainly didn’t disappoint.
