Step into Heartsville High, a unique world where everyone is gay—well, almost everyone! In this topsy-turvy society, the chess champion reigns as the big man on campus, while the football team's star finds his cool factor by landing the lead in the school musical. The students stir up controversy with their original production, "Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell," which focuses on straight people in the military.

This daring show sets the stage for an unexpected love story between a young man and woman.

Enter Zanna, a magical, musical fairy who, with a wave of their wand, brings true love to one and all! Join us for a heartwarming and whimsical journey of love, acceptance, and the magic of being yourself.
