On Stage In SF: New Musical 'Head Over Heels' With Go-Go's Tunes

SAN FRANCISCO – "Head Over Heels," a new musical comedy featuring the songs of The GoGo’s, is playing at the Curran Theatre through May 6, ahead of its Broadway premiere in New York City in July.

"Head Over Heels" is described as "an unpredictable, Elizabethan romp about a royal family that must prevent an oracle's prophecy of doom. In order to save their beloved kingdom,the family embarks on an extravagant journey wrought with mistaken identities, jealous lovers, sexual awakening, scandal and self-discovery, where everything (and everyone) is not quite what it seems."

Making their Broadway debut as songwriters, The Go-Go’s said, “Head Over Heels is a celebration of love in all its forms, joyful, fun and full of heart, driven by the songs that for decades have been making people jump from their seats and dance.”

The musical features The Go-Go’s iconic hits “We Got the Beat,” “Get Up and Go,” “Cool Jerk,” “Vacation,” “Our Lips Are Sealed,” “Lust to Love,” “Head Over Heels” and Belinda Carlisle’s solo songs “Mad About You” and “Heaven is a Place on Earth.”

The Curran is at 445 Geary St. in San Francisco. For ticket information, click here.
