A lead role means lots of drama in this sparkling story of one tween's efforts to shine in the spotlight.

Sunny Kim is done with one-line roles at Carnegie Arts Academy-she's ready for the lead. But even after a summer of studying with an acting coach, Sunny doesn't snag the role of Mary Poppins in her school's upcoming production.
Unfortunately, her entire family mistakenly thinks otherwise, including her former-actress mother.
Desperate for a solution, Sunny convinces her theater adviser to let her produce a one-woman show. But when the rest of her friends find out-the friends that never seem to make the playbill either-they all want to join in. Before long, Sunny is knee-deep in curtains, catfights, and chorus lines as her one-woman work turns into a staging of the hit musical Wicked. And when a terrible misunderstanding pits the entire cast against Sunny, can the show-and Sunny's future acting career-be saved in time for opening night?
