(Jukebox Musical)
In 1989, 16-year-old Emily dumped her boyfriend Jaret. Now in 2008, neither of them has got over each other. A chance encounter causes them each to start reflecting on the past – but with work commitments, surprise illnesses and mid-life crises to contend with, will the reunion ever happen?
Set in 2008 between Texas and Ohio, High School Never Ends the Musical is a comedic love story of two high school sweethearts who fall out, part for years, and then have the opportunity to start again when there is a high school reunion. It is a heartful tale to appeal to everyone who struggled throughout high school; and a life-affirming story for anyone who sometimes feels dissatisfaction at how life has turned out. A series of nostalgia-filled flashback scenes from the 1980s highlight the peculiarities of being a high school student – a sense of bewilderment that never truly leaves us when we move into the adult world. Sexuality, love, dreams, fear and lack of confidence are just some of the topics that High School Never Ends the Musical explores, as a strong cast of characters attempt to be true to themselves in a world that has proved itself deeply disappointing.​
