The fan-favourite musical ‘Be More Chill’ is a rocking new sci-fi musical about growing up, high school, and what we will do to get what we want.
Jeremy Heere is just an average teenager and a bit of a loser. That is, until he discovers The SQUIP, a supercomputer inside a tiny pill he swallows that implants in his brain and promises him everything he desires most – a date with Christine, an invite to the raddest party of the year and a chance to survive life in his suburban New Jersey high school.
But, as he ‘upgrades’ in popularity, and starts to get the girls, it takes control of everything he says and does, and deletes everything important to him, including his best friend, Michael – is this what Jeremy really wants?
‘Be More Chill’ is one of the newer untraditional musicals that The Regals Musical Society has undertaken in its 75-year history, but the society is excited to be offering such a relatable, vibrant, high-energy and unique show to its audiences.
Emily is looking forward to making her community theatre debut as ‘Be More Chill’s’ smartphone gossip, Jenna Rolan.
Jenna is the high school smartphone gossip who views friendships as a transaction.
She trades the ‘honour’ of talking with the popular girls by collecting and sharing everyone’s secrets.
Emily said: ‘Be More Chill has been one of, if not my favourite musical for the last few years, and re-exploring all the moments I’ve come to love has been incredibly fun.
“It’s been an amazing opportunity to play a lead role for the first time and I’m so excited to keep putting this show together (and especially to perform ‘Smartphone Hour’).”
Catch ‘Be More Chill’ from March 11-14, with tickets $25-$35 via theregals.com.au, call 0433 813 381 or email tickets@theregals.com.au.
