Hermia is heading towards the worst summer vacation ever. Her principal has given her a homework assignment that requires her to break up with her boyfriend Lysander and date a guy she doesn't like. In order to save their love and their GPA, Hermia and Lysander must break into the school and transfer out of Athens high. To do so however, they must first get past a boy who refuses to accept rejection, an overzealous cheerleader, a magical janitor, and a meddling team of fairies who live in the ceiling tiles of the school. Comedy quickly ensues in this spoof of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. (A full-length version of this play is also available.)
