The full story of a junior high musical production, told exclusively from the POV of the kids backstage. It's High School Musical, from behind the scenes... without the high school. It's Tech Week for the Juniper Valley Middle School production of
Curie: The Musical!
That's the official term for it, anyway. Stage crew calls it Hell Week, and for good reason. They're working frantically to add sets, costumes, lighting, and sound to the show... all while the cast plays prank after prank.
When a bag of crickets is set loose in the middle of the costumes, though,
enough is enough.
It's time for stage crew to get even!
Willow, the sound board operator, becomes the mastermind behind the crew's dangerous revenge plot, and when the entire drama club declares war, Levi and his new maybe-girlfriend Rosa are caught in the middle.
Meanwhile, stage manager Ella is badly hurt, and the ringleaders - and main actors -- Jordan and River are suspended.
Now it's the day before opening night and there's no one to play Pierre Curie. Can the cast and crew come together to save this musical
?
