That may be a Smokey Robinson song, but “Head Over Heels” is a hit Broadway musical featuring music from the iconic 80s rock band The Go-Go’s, the latest production coming to ZACH Theatre.

But there’s a catch: The musical isn’t actually about The Go-Gos, but about a beloved kingdom that needs rescuing, and the laugh-out-loud journey the royal family takes to save it.

Bonus: Original Go-Go member Kathy Valentine leads the all-girl band.

See it for yourself Tuesday, Aug. 8-Sunday, Sept. 10. Performance times vary. Grab tickets
