Sixth grader April Xue lives and breathes all things Broadway. When she builds up the courage to audition for the lead role in the school play, she thinks she's knocked it out of the park โ until she finds out that she's been assigned to the stage crew. April is devastatedโit seems like the curtain is closing on her dream of being an actor.ย

With the help of her best friend, a sneaky student reporter, and her spirited castmates, April learns to confront her own insecurities as a performer and proves to everyone (including Ms. Rooney) that she deserves a fair shot โ all in time for opening night.
