Directed by Kevin Tancharoen
Produced by Lakeshore Entertainment, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer
A vibrant, ensemble-driven musical about young artists pursuing their dreams at a prestigious performing arts school, balancing ambition with self-doubt and connection.
At New York's High School of Performing Arts, students from all walks of life get the chance to hone their skills as singers, actors, dancers, and more. Over four years, these young men and women will see if they truly have the dedication and talent to achieve success, while still juggling regular schoolwork, feelings of self-doubt, and budding romances.
