After maybe-almost hitting another girl who was "always talking junk," Cue is forced to start at a new school, where she meets the popular yet struggling Tad and a lonely geek named B. In a world tangled with social pressure and peer disrespect, these three teenagers struggle to find a peaceful remix in the school and themselves. With a record-scratching DJ as the play's conscience, this work takes on the fragile identities and emotions that complicate teens' lives.

Published Reviews

"It's very empowering. It gets its message across without being preachy. I want every kid in town to see this ... I hope each one of them would have a renewed faith in their ability to stand on their own."

Houston Chronicle

"The feedback from schools has ranged from very positive to rave! Thanks for sharing your wonderful, thought-provoking play with us."

Lauren Marshall, Producing Artistic Director, Seattle Public Theatre

"The play resonates with students... The realism of the play is why the students relate to it."
