Have you ever tried out for a school play?  Have any of your friends?  Well, in this book, Topher Burke has won the lead role in his eighth grade play.  It's a musical version of Rumpelstiltskin and Topher is looking forward to it.  He loves being on stage.  But what he doesn't count on are the temperamental leading lady and the teasing of the school bully.  Add to the mix the very defensive playwright, and you just know that chaos will break out.
