MAPLEWOOD, NJ — Maplewood Middle School is set to perform its musical, "13," this weekend and next weekend. The show is described as: “A hilarious coming-of-age musical about discovering that 'cool' is sometimes where we least expect it.”
The description of the play is:
<blockquote>“Evan Goldman is plucked from his fast-paced, preteen New York City life and plopped into a sleepy Indiana town following his parents' divorce. Surrounded by an array of simple-minded middle school students, he needs to establish his place in the popularity pecking order. Can he situate himself on a comfortable link of the food chain… or will he dangle at the end with the outcasts?!?”
