Sinossi

In the lights of the West End, a competition – and romance – is heating up, bringing the drama, plot twists and highs that only musical theatre can.

‘Heartwarming and sweetly romantic, this is a gorgeous love letter to theatre kids everywhere, and to anyone who is searching for their people.’ Simon James Green

‘A sweet and uplifting story about finding your tribe and following your dreams.’ The Irish Times

Larger than life Olly is back at the UK’s most prestigious competition for teen performers to prove he has what it takes to be a leading man. After being sabotaged last year, he is determined to stand out ahead of his drama school auditions.

Nervous newbie Tarun was nominated after stepping in from the chorus to a leading role. This is his week to explore if his secret hobby could be something more serious. But imposter-syndrome is real, and his dad's derisive comments threaten to derail him.

When the two boys are paired together, Olly can’t comprehend being with someone who doesn’t get his niche musical references, whilst Tarun thinks Olly is ‘way too much’. But they soon discover they’ve more in common than the opening number might reveal.

Amidst the drama of rehearsals, could two boys be falling in love?
