54 Below (NY) with Laurie Metcalf - January 2020
"This 70-minute concert version of the musical had teensters present a story centered around 'The Heavenly 7,' a group of Brooksville Middle Schoolers led by golden-voiced Samantha Belding as Caroline, being launched into their high school experience with all the excitement, angst and anxiety that entails."
