Go-Go’s Stage Musical ‘Head Over Heels’ Headed to L.A., Reconfigured as ‘Dance Party’
,” the Broadway production that put the song catalog of the Go-Go’s to use as the basis of a narrative musical-comedy, is finally reaching the band’s hometown of Los Angeles this fall, just in time to roughly coincide with the group getting inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year., though, where it’s slated as the storied venue’s reopening attraction Nov. 9-12, will differ in many ways than what Broadway audiences saw in 2018 .
“The script is the same — albeit shorter,” says Feldman, who notes that this “Head Over Heels” will run as one single, energized act with no intermission, lasting about an hour and a half. “There’s no additions to music or script and there’s not a new book writer attached. It’s just a slimmed-down version, but conceived with the idea of the spirit of the Go-Go’s a little more baked into the visual concept of the show.
He’s referring to two other transfers from Broadway, “Ann,” Taylor Holland’s one-woman show about Texas governor Ann Richards, and “Freestyle Love Supreme,” the rap improvisation show co-created by Lin-Manuel Miranda. “Head Over Heels” will precede them, though, as the first attraction of the Playhouse — California’s official state theater — in almost two years.
One thing that was true of the previous productions that Feldman thinks they’ll be able to replicate in Pasadena, or even improve upon: the feeling that it sounds like an actual rock band playing the music — which is, in fact, the case — without either the rock or the plot getting lost in the mix.
