Broadway's 'Head Over Heels' Musical Is Getting a Reimagined Dance Party Production in L.A.

The musical Head Over Heels, which was performed on Broadway in 2018, has been reimagined with a new dance party production that is currently playing in Los Angeles!

The Pasadena Playhouse kicked off its 2021-2022 season with the new musical, which features the music of the iconic LA-based female rock band, The Go-Go’s.

The music follows a royal family in search of a purpose, lovers in search of each other, and a whole kingdom in search of a beat. Songs in the musical include “Our Lips Are Sealed,” “Vacation,” “We Got the Beat,” and Belinda Carlisle‘s “Heave is a Place on Earth.”

The musical was originally produced for a traditional proscenium stage on Broadway, but the new 90-minute, intermission-free production in Pasadena puts the audience in the middle of the theater with a dance floor setting. There are also seats for those who don’t want to stand!
