About this event
Songs by The Go-Go’s
Based on ‘The Arcadia’ by Sir Philip Sidney
Conceived and Original Book by Jeff Whitty
Adapted by James Magruder
Directed and Choreographed by Michael C. Flores
Head Over Heels, conceived by Jeff Whitty and adapted by James Magruder, is a glittering, rebellious musical fueled by the Go-Go’s iconic hits. Directed and choreographed by Michael C. Flores, this production channels the spirit of your favorite pop concert, powered by the music that shaped your favorite artist’s favorite artist. Elizabethan language collides with 1980s punk and new wave in a story where a royal prophecy threatens the king’s crown, thrusting the kingdom into a transformative journey. Daring, joyful, and brash, Head Over Heels is a raucous anthem that offers a window into a more hopeful, more liberated future.
