WRITTEN AND PERFORMED BY MILO CRAMER

Xavier has stopped doing homework because of climate change.
Dana never turns her Zoom camera on.
James hates reading.
A warmhearted and funny portrait of modern school life, told in musical snapshots of individual teenagers, sung by their broke and hapless tutor.
Songwriter and performer Milo Cramer was inspired by their real-life experiences as a private tutor to create what they describe as “loving musical portraits of struggling students.”
This world premiere is directed by Lead Artistic Director Morgan Green, who previously directed the world premiere digital production of James Ijames’ Pulitzer Prize-winning play Fat Ham.
