Expelled from a prestigious prep school and threatened with a Catholic military academy, a naïve runaway from the wrong side of the tracks is seduced by New York City's gritty and glamorous 1980s East Village scene. This romantic, vibrant, magical and sometimes irreverent new musical follows one boy’s search for a place to belong as he questions his own concepts of sexuality, identity, family and love –– all through the lens of some of the most unforgettable and iconic ’80s New Wave songs.
