The theme of this show is inevitably something that children understand well. The main character, Kim, leads a girl gang. The girls adopt an aggressive, bullying lifestyle until Kim’s own brother becomes entangled in the problems of one of their victims. This exciting musical, with its slick script, nine excellent songs and stylish incidental music, offers a very engaging and meaningful dramatic experience for juniors and young teens.
The show is theatrically exciting from the start, with its dramatic opening number in three sections, including some dialogue with music under. This number quickly introduces the main gang characters as a new member is initiated.
Young performers love this musical! They love its modernity, they love the characters, the show means something to them and its cathartic effect cannot go un-noticed! The message got across really well. There's a real anti-bullying buzz around the school. Mary Cooney - Music Teacher, Ireland

Wonderful Show With Excellent Songs. Review by Elizabeth Maclaren - Teacher, Glasgow.
Dear Starshine. Could I take this opportunity to say this was a wonderful show with excellent songs which were well within the performing capacity of our Primary 6 and Primary 7 children. The children themselves have thoroughly enjoyed learning the main aspects of musical theatre, and the settings and situation are close to every child's heart.
