“I'm so upset that I didn't print out a copy of this play to post on the callboard alongside the cast list of my own production of Wizard of Oz. The subversive message of the play is so excellently crafted into the recognizable theatre kid "tropes" and I enjoyed it tremendously! Great work!”

- Emily McClain, Playwright​

"My grade 6 students fought over who got to perform this one! Great message for young actors, while being a lot of fun!"

 - Nicole Perry, Director

“There's a bit of a warm smile you get as these students bring even the smallest roles in a school play into the highest of stakes. Steven Hayet creates the kind of backstory you expect from theatre schoolkids and stands up for the kids finding joy in their imagination and turning a lesser role into something amazing. It's a fun play with some really great dialogue and rhythm. It would completely fit any school play event. ”

 - Franky D. Gonzalez, Playwright & TV Writer

It is now being adapted into a short animated film!
