Adapted from “The Arcadia,” Philip Sidney’s 16th century pastoral romance, “Head Over Heels” tells the story of a royal family embarking on an extravagant journey set to the iconic music of the 1980s all-female band The Go-Go’s, featuring such hit songs as “We Got the Beat,” “Vacation” and Belinda Carlisle’s “Heaven is a Place on Earth.”
“It has been such a pleasure collaborating with the students to bring this vibrant, joyous piece to life,” say co-directors Carper and Wrinn. “’Head Over Heels’ is a timely story that explores the complexities and confusions of life and love and ultimately reminds us all of the importance of embracing and revealing our authentic selves.”
“Head Over Heels” is a bold and fierce modern musical comedy from the visionary minds behind “Hedwig and the Angry Inch,” “Avenue Q, and “Spring Awakening” that will bring the beat to the Storch Theatre.
