"The pandemic made many organizations work creatively this past year. Traditionally, Homewood-Flossmoor Community High School offers a live spring play in early May in its Mall Auditorium. With social-distancing and capacity challenges in the spring, this was not possible. Nevertheless, the school’s theatre department worked to provide a performance opportunity for its talented students and an entertainment option for the greater H-F community," the school stated in its announcement.

According to the high school, the play is based on a book by Kyle Holmes, with music and lyrics by David Taylor Gomes. The show tells the story of a dystopian world where competition reaches new heights as publicized academic excellence defines each student’s worth, according to the school.

"In the face of an intense and perverse culture of performance, Lily (Morgan Barber) must come to grips with her place in the status quo as she watches friends and enemies alike destroy themselves — and each other — to score their way to the top of the academic leaderboards. When an impossible lie is discovered, the fate of these students’ futures hangs in the balance," the school stated.

H-F High School said the show is recommended for ages 10 and up.
