"You'd think that using the bouncy, 1980s pop tunes that were recorded by the all-girl group The Go-Go's as the songs for a musical based on a 16th-century prose would seem to be a bit of a disconnect. However, the upbeat tunes work extremely well for the charming Head Over Heels, which has a modern sensibility as it celebrates love in all shapes, forms and genders. Arizona State University Music Theatre and Opera is presenting the local premiere of the musical that had a short Broadway run in 2018 in a sharply directed and smartly cast production that makes for a funny, feel-good show and a welcome and quite moving celebration of love...a musical with a refreshing open-mindedness about gender and sexuality. In addition to it being a show with a modern sensibility and having important lessons about tolerance, the need to be yourself, and accepting others for who they truly are, no matter their gender, sexual identity, or sexual preference, it's also a whole lot of fun."
