Jeremy Heere is just an average teenager. That is, until he finds out about “The Squip,” a tiny supercomputer that promises to bring 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 is being the most popular guy in school worth the risk? A hit on Broadway and in the West End!

A Note from the Director About BE MORE CHILL:
On the surface, Be More Chill is a fast-paced, quirky sci-fi musical comedy, and it absolutely delivers on that! However, it also explores deeper, more mature themes. The show addresses important issues such as bullying, peer pressure, the desire to fit in, and mental health struggles, including depression. It also contains strong language, references to alcohol and drug use, and implied sexual situations.
While I believe it’s important to provide this content advisory for our audiences, I also firmly believe that BE MORE CHILL is a meaningful and valuable production—both for our actors to perform and for our community to experience. At its heart, the show encourages self-acceptance and reminds us that everyone is fighting their own battles, often unseen.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Thank you for your continued support and understanding.
