On the final day of classes at Rochester High School, a renegade student takes over the morning announcements and proposes that everyone do something bold. Or unexpected. Or brave. Or stupid. The point is, you may not have another chance, so now's the time to stop being a wallflower and kiss the girl (or guy!). To let your enemies know that you have always hated their guts. Or to do something as simple as climb the rope in gym without throwing up. Through a series of interconnected scenes, misconceptions, grudges, and secret crushes come out into the open in hilarious and surprisingly touching ways. A comedy with a lot of heart, and no regrets.

Great for Student Directors
Our cast had a wonderful experience with this show and our audience also responded so very well to it. This show was part of an evening of student-directed one-act plays and it capped off the evening. I felt that it worked so well because everyone could relate to some aspect of it - I loved the various relationships and experiences of the characters. I also found the whole process very easy, from ordering, to downloading the script - everything. Thank you very much for a positive theatre experience!
