A lead role means lots of drama in this sparkling story of one tween's
efforts to shine in the spotlight.
Sunny Kim is done with one-line roles at Carnegie Arts Academy--she's
ready for the lead. But even after a summer of studying with an acting
coach, Sunny doesn't snag the role of Mary Poppins in her school's
upcoming production.
Unfortunately, her entire family mistakenly thinks otherwise, including
her former-actress mother.
Desperate for a solution, Sunny convinces her theater adviser to let her
produce a one-woman show. But when the rest of her friends find out--the
friends that never seem to make the playbill either--they all want to
join in. Before long, Sunny is knee-deep in curtains, catfights, and
chorus lines as her one-woman work turns into a staging of the hit
musical Wicked. And when a terrible misunderstanding pits the entire
cast against Sunny, can the show--and Sunny's future acting career--be
saved in time for opening night?
