Hide & Seek
Hide and Seek chronicles the story of Andrew, a high school sophomore as he comes to terms with his newfound sexuality,
Set in modern day, the musical deals with the pressure of coming out in a world where it is acceptable to be a member of the LGBTQIA+ community. Through navigating his identity with friends, breaking up with his girlfriend, and even entertaining a relationship with an out-of-the-closet guy from school, he inches closer and closer to feeling comfortable in his own skin.
And yet, with the increasing influence of social media, Andrew faces the guilt of hiding in the closet, though he may not be ready to fully embrace himself.
