Ali can’t explain why she nominated the totally unpopular Dolores for the solo in the school concert. She barely knows her; she just happens to know that Dolores has a killer voice. Now all Ali’s fashion-loving friends are giving her the cold shoulder and she’s becoming almost as invisible as Dolores. A fresh and lively take on the pursuit of popularity and the value of true friendship.

Each performance will be accompanied by a special facilitated talk-back.
