Plot
editAt Hoogland College, a new school year begins with high hopes as a group of students known as the Misfits plan a musical production. These plans are soon thrown into jeopardy when the recently appointed headmistress, Agnes, bans the performance. Prioritizing discipline and academia above all else, she regards the musical as an unorthodox distraction from the student’s available time. In defiance, Julia rallies the Misfits, as well as others, to defy said restrictions and continue their creative work against the odds.
