Synopsis

A powerful, provocative play that approaches the teen experience for the 1990's.

Told with the stark poetry of the streets, a determined group of youths try to get their song with an "anti-drug" message on stage at a local teen club.

The lyrics of the song condemn the drug dealers of the neighborhood.

When the drug dealers get wind of the song, they react violently and try to sabotage their efforts.

Will the rock 'n rollers succeed in getting their message out?

Or will the dealers succeed in their plot against them by threatening to kill one of their relatives?

Told with humor, music and an ear for today's teen voice this is a timely and honest play about a major concern facing teens today.

The powerful music has a message for all kids.

From the author of: Voices from the High School .
