Fat T My 12-year old son introduced this musical to me in fact. And it breaks my heart that we didn't manage to see it live in NYC in its run in late 2021 but I am so grateful they had shot the final closed (?) performance on film. The casting of Hagelberger is beyond perfect. On stage for all but 13 minutes in an almost 2 hour production, no other musical comes to mind which demands so much of its lead, not just in terms of technical competence and artistry but also from his emotional self, and one so young. He brings incredible pluck and authenticity to Trevor. Truely, even his occasional minor fumbles add credibility and joy to Trevor's triumphant journey, from self-realization to self-doubt, from self-harm to self-advocacy. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/19/25 Full Review Teddy B This feels more underlyingly creepy than aspirational. It doesn't go nearly as far as most anyone would assume it would with the subject matter it concerns itself with and just feels so cringe-worthy as a whole. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/05/24 Full Review BACON B Its good movie to do something else to do with it, I am saying its not really the best musical. Some of the songs are really good and thats almost the only thing is saving it. The plot is meh, its still good but not so slay. The actors did a great job of acting out the parts though. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/18/23 Full Review Audience Member I wanted to like this more than I did. I had a chance to see this in NY, but didnt take it. When I heard they were doing a pro shot, I was stoked. I finally got around to watching it and... kind of am glad I missed it. I cant think of much good to say about Trevor. Trevor is at its best when it comes to the dance. The actors charleston, jazz, ballet, etc their butts off. The shame is how weak the singing is. Yeah, the actors are all young. For a pro shot of an off broadway show U expected better. They were pitchy, off tempo, and often off key. The songs were stereotypical in their musical theatre feel. The acting was what youd expect with a bunch of kids. If you like high school shows you will love it. If you want normal broadway stuff, this is not it. Its telegraphed, flat, and awkward. The actors stumble over their clunky dialogue. No character has a chance to breathe with the breakneck pace. Its a shame, really. A show that could have been so right was just so wrong. I would almost rather see a high school production of Rent or Avenue Q. Where its easy to laugh at how bad it is. This was just so bad it kind of hurts.

If I had one critique, there's a few too many songs. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/30/22 Full Review robert c Deals with bullying. It may not be perfect but it hits home.
