The Gospel According to Heather will release an Off-Broadway cast recording through JAY Records this March, with a date soon to be announced. The production opened Off-Broadway last summer, running at Theatre 555 from June 14 through July 16, 2023. In anticipation of the full album's release, an initial song is available to preview. Watch above to hear the musical's opening number, "My Name is Heather Krebs."
In The Gospel According to Heather, Heather Krebs wants a boyfriend, but how can she navigate her way through high school if she might be the new Messiah? A small town in Ohio grapples with politics, religion, and teenage romance in the pop musical featuring a book, music, and lyrics by Tony nominee Paul Gordon (Jane Eyre).
Filmed in 2023, the one-night-only event featured Brian Stokes Mitchell, Audra McDonald, Peter Friedman, and more from the Ahrens and Flaherty musical's original cast.
Surrounded by period-accurate, 19th-century holiday decorations lit via candlelight, the 70-minute production is based on Dickens' own script of the classic.
