Auditions are required in order to be a part of the cast. This will allow us to assess the comfort level of children as performers, evaluate their skills and find the role that will best suit their personality and talent. There is no cost to audition. Children will be seen in small groups during their audition time slot. They will be asked to read short scenes from the script (called sides). They will fill out a short audition form listing their possible conflicts and any previous experience. Casting will be based on availability, ability, and attitude. Cast members will be enrolled in the program as a class and must pay a participation fee. This fee covers professional instruction throughout the process, a copy of the script which performers may keep, a cast t-shirt, and all production costs.

The recycling program Naia started at Wilson High School is useless - until megastar Taylor Swift issues them a challenge: if they recycle 20,000 cans in two weeks, she'll sing at their dance. The whole school leaps into delirious action to make this dream come true. They might make it - But what will Naia and her friends do when the school of desperate Swifties turns to actual crime to win their prize?
