TIME/PLACE: Today, over in the United States (the saddest place on earth)
Heβs poor. Sheβs dead. Theyβre a whore. Sheβs got a yeast infectionβ¦ And, they need you to SUPPORT THE ARTS!

Picking up where the Disney franchise leaves off, our βgrown-upβ story is from the vantage point of the troublemaking adults. Losers Vinnie and Boris find their expensive music degrees have left them nearly homeless and penniless. When their high school commissions a government-funded televised play to save the National Endowment for the Arts, the two broke guys pen a jolly show about poverty β HOBO HEAVEN: TURN OFF THE POOR. Psychotic teachers, violent angels, and Martha Stewart join forces as our Bohemian writers rescue/exploit the arts in this tragic multicultural festival of friendship, artistic prostitution, magic, and reefer madness!
Littered with espionage, irritating fundraisers, the ghost of Bea Arthur, and the greatest 10:13 showstopper in the history of Polish folk songs, Not Another High School Musical explores the creation of art, selling oneβs dignity, and the self-discovery process artists must endure as it violates your senses. The eclectic and baffling 18-song original score of such whimsical tunes as βHobo Heavenβ, βAn Apple a Dayβ, βWhore For the Artsβ, βChildren Are the Futureβ, βIn the Shadowsβ, βGood Thingβ, and βYouβre Still Jewish?β (deemed too offensive) will leave audiences crying as the story crashes to a chilling resolution...although we did cut the risquΓ© and expensive scene where Martha Stewart cooks the turkey in a trash can.
NOT ANOTHER HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL is an all-out farce that is grounded in fear, bitterness, desperation, and artistic integrity. The show is stuffed with nonstop jokes and situations that make for hilarity, but also features characters who move us, holding a mirror up to ourselves and the choices we make. At the heart of any farce lies truth. As the story reaches the sentiment via the satire, it should prove to be less campy and instead evoke pathos. Itβs silly, itβs vulgar, itβs shockingβ¦but at its core, it explores personal growth and learning how actions affect others.
