Overview
Synopsis
Disco kids and rockers don’t like each other. But when a rocker boy and disco girl fall for each other, what will their friends do? Will they come together and put aside their differences or will they disown their friend?
This musical is about opening our hearts and minds to people that are different than us and seeing that we all have things in common.
But it’s mostly about the great music of the 1970’s!
