When you're 13 years old, everything can be a drag -- especially switching to a new school because your parents are getting divorced. Leaving the fast-paced world of New York City for a sleepy little Indiana town, Evan Goldman is in a hurry to establish his spot in his new school's pecking order. But that's easier said than done -- since the star quarterback is threatening to ruin his life, someone is spreading nasty rumors about him and his only friend Patrice won't even talk to him. Powered by a talented all-teenage cast and an infectious rock score from Tony Award-winning composer Jason Robert Brown (The Last Five Years), this Media Music Theatre Company production of 13 is a high-energy show about discovering that "cool" is often where you least expect it. See it live on the stage at The Media Theatre in Philadelphia.
